Biographical History

He was educated at Yale, and began practicing law, but was more interested in politics and writing. He is perhaps best remembered as a journalist; he was editor of Outing magazine and later covered the Spanish-American war in the Philippines. Bigelow travelled extensively, and numbered among his correspondents some of the best-known figures in Europe and America. He died in 1954.
