Biographical History
Born in 1867, Albert Robinson Crittenden graduated from Ann Arbor High School in 1887. After teaching in the public schools for two years he entered the University of Michigan receiving his bachelor's degree in 1874. He was a high school principal in Ypsilanti, Michigan and Moline, Illinois. During these years up to 1900, Crittenden came to be recognized as an outstanding teacher of Latin in the secondary schools. In order to gain a better background for his work he spent the year 1900-1901 at the American Academy in Rome. During his stay in Rome he married Lisla A. van Valkenburg, a fellow student at the Academy. After his year abroad he returned to the University of Michigan for graduate study, receiving his master's degree in 1902. From then until 1909 Crittenden was Professor of Latin at Olivet College, working in the meantime for his doctorate, which he received in 1908. While on leave from Olivet in 1908-9 he began teaching at the University of Michigan as a substitute for Professor Walter Dennison, who was then in Rome. Beginning as an instructor he rose to the rank of Assistant Professor in 1910, to Associate Professor in 1916, and finally to Professor in 1924. He died on December 17, 1933.
Professor of Classics at Olivet College and University of Michigan.
