Description

Samuel Sidney McClure (1857-1949) was born in Ireland, and emigrated with his brothers and widowed mother to Indiana when he was nine. He grew up on a farm and worked as a farm hand, butcher, peddler, messboy and school teacher before moving first to Boston, then to New York City where he founded America's first newspaper syndicate. There he published Jack London, Stephen Crane, and Upton Sinclair, among many others. McClure later expanded with McClure's Magazine, one of the most important magazines in American literature and journalism. After leaving the magazine he toured abroad frequently, but New York City remained his home. He is buried next to his wife in Galesburg, Illinois. Willa Cather (1873-1947) was born in Virginia, and later moved with her family to Nebraska. After college she worked as a magazine editor in Pittsburgh. Cather then moved to New York City to join the widely popular McClure's Magazine. She rose to become one of the most powerful editors in America, working with such literary greats as Joseph Conrad, A.E. Houseman and William Butler Yeats. After leaving McClure's to pursue her career as a writer, Cather went on to become an award-winning American author, of whom Publishers Weekly said, "many readers dearly love." She remained in New York City for the rest of her life.
