Biographical History
Frank Jewett Mather was born on July 6,1868, in Deep River Connecticut. Mather attended Williams College for his undergraduate studies and then obtained a Ph.D. in English, Philology, and Literature from Johns Hopkins University. In college he developed a deep appreciation for art, and began to pursue his own creative career. From 1893 to 1900, Mather took a break from his painting to teach at Williams College. In 1901 he changed paths and entered the journalism world, working at The Nation and The New York Evening Post . In 1906 Mather moved to Italy, where he met Allan Marquand. Marquand convinced Mather to move to Princeton and become a professor in the Department of Art and Archaeology, a department founded by Allan Marquand himself. In 1912 Mather produced two highly acclaimed books, Homer Martin, Poet in Landscape, an art history, and The Collectors, a collection of short stories. In 1920 he began work with the Smithsonian Art Commission. Two years later he became director of Princeton University's art museum, and in 1933 became a professor emeritus there. Mather spent much of his retirement on his Bucks County farm, and passed away on November 11, 1953, in Princeton.
Frank Jewett Mather (1868-1953) was an American art critic and professor of art and archaeology at Princeton University.
