Starr earned his LL.B. from Harvard Law School in 1881 and returned to his native Chicago to practice law.

Mr. Starr was active in Chicago's intellectual and civic life. He was a founding member of the Hull House Social Science Club for Men in 1889. A resident of the North Shore suburb Winnetka, Starr was active in New Trier Township civics and organized the creation of New Trier High School in 1899. Starr was elected the first president of the New Trier Board of Education and the high school opened in 1901.

An acquaintance of the future President while both were at Harvard, Starr contributed the introduction to Thomas H. Russell 's 1920 Life and Work of Theodore Roosevelt. The introduction is a laudatory biographical overview of Roosevelt and contains several anecdotes from their student years.

Starr died August 2, 1931 and was survived by his wife and three children.

Charles Eliot Norton papers

Charles Eliot Norton papers

Title: Charles Eliot Norton papers

This archive contains letters addressed to Charles Eliot Norton from about 1845 to1908. Norton was a Harvard graduate (A.B. 1846) and professor of the History of Fine Arts at Harvard from 1874 to 1898, with a special interest in the study and translation of Dante. Many of the letters in this collection deal with art and with Dante. In addition he knew a great many prominent figures in both England and the United States, especially those in the political field and the literary and artistics fields. His correspondence with these people often touches upon their public and their private lives. From 1863 to 1868 Norton was joint editor with his friend James Russell Lowell of the North American review. The letters addressed to him as editor are marked in this index by a star (*) and the folders containing them are stamped with a red N.A.R.(=North American Review). In 1898 Norton's opposition to the Spanish-American war led Senator George F. Hoar to criticize him. A list of some of the letters Norton received commenting on this controversy is at the end of this index. Referenced throughout the finding aid is the Excavations at Delphi (scrapbook folder) with a folder designation, such as f.1, f.2, and so on. All folders can be found at item number 5308.
