"Kitty" of Harvard
The most eminent Shakespearean of his day, George Lyman Kittredge ruled the English Department as he ruled his classes at Harvard, with an iron hand and cold blue eyes which could spark when the occasion arose. Never a Ph.D. himself, he did more to train and temper the steel of Ph.D.’s than any other educator in the East. His fire, his challenge, and his encouragement will not soon be forgotten. We have called on ROLLO WALTER BROWN, one of his students, for this picture of ”Kitty" in action.
