The web page of Cambridge University offers a detailed history of the process of decipherment, and includes the initial correspondence of Michael Ventris with John Chadwick, a Classical philologist, who became his partner in the further working out of the decipherment at a time when people still wrote letters longhand and on typewriters!; it also includes biographies and pictures of both men.

Jeremy Rutter's Dartmouth website provides a useful discussion of the use of Linear B in Mycenaean society but no pictures.
