He taught playwriting at the University of Pennsylvania from 1928 to 1930. His father was S. Weir Mitchell, neurologist and author.
Langdon Elwyn Mitchell (1862-1935) was an American playwright, poet and professor of playwriting. Mitchell also wrote poetry, under the pseudonym John Philip Varley. The son of neurologist and author, Silas Weir Mitchell, Mitchell was born in Philadelphia. After studying law at Harvard and Columbia Universities, Mitchell was admitted to the New York Bar in 1886. He traveled abroad for some time and eventually returned to Philadelphia where he went into law practice.
He began his writing career with poetry, publishing collections such as Sylvian and Other Poems (1884) and Poems (1894). He also published a collection of short stories in 1896, Love in the Backwoods. When Mitchell turned his focus to playwriting, he achieved more success. His first produced play, In the Season, premiered in London in 1893 and on Broadway in 1895, but he wasn't acknowledged as an important playwright until his 1899 success with Becky Sharp.
An adaptation of William Makepeace Thackeray's classic novel, Vanity Fair, Becky Sharp starred Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske, the leading actress of the day. The 1935 film adaptation of Becky Sharp, starring Miriam Hopkins, was the first full-length Technicolor film.
Other notable plays by Mitchell include The New York Idea, an examination of the emerging phenomenon of casual divorce; A Kentucky Belle; Step By Step; The New Marriage; another Thackeray adaptation, Major Pendennis; and an adaptation of Tolstoy's The Kreutzer Sonata.
In 1928, Mitchell joined fellow playwrights Jesse Lynch Williams, Lord Dunsany, Gilbert Emery and Rachel Crothers to create a playwriting course at the University of Pennsylvania, where he lectured for two years. Some of their lectures were published in The Art of Playwriting: Lectures Delivered at the University of Pennsylvania on the Mask and Wig Foundation (1928). In 1892, Mitchell married actress Marion Lea, with whom he had one son and two daughters. Mitchell died at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia on October 21, 1935.

Title:
Langdon Mitchell letters to Dorothy Thomas 1917-1935
Langdon Elwyn Mitchell (1862-1935), American poet and playwright, used the pseudonym John Philip Varley. His best-known plays were Becky Sharp (1899) and The New York Idea (1906). He taught playwriting at the University of Pennsylvania from 1928 to 1930. His father was S. Weir Mitchell, neurologist and author. Approximately forty letters, 1917-1935, from Langdon Mitchell to Dorothy Thomas, a daughter of a family friend who became his lover when he was 55 and she 22. Most of the collection consists of love letters expressing his longing and devotion. The letters also contain a few mentions of his writing, and his encouragement of her own literary efforts. The original letters are supplemented by typed transcripts made by Thomas. A transcript of a letter from Charles Hanson Towne to Mitchell with comments on Thomas' writing is also present.

Kane, Florence Bayard, 1868-1943. Papers, 1886-1943.
Title:
Papers, 1886-1943.
The material consists of incoming and outgoing personal correspondence, papers from organizations to which Miss Kane belonged or contributed, personal memorabilia and other miscellany, and the manuscript writings of sister Anne Francis (Nancy) Kane. Florence Bayard Kane's outgoing correspondence consists primarily of letters, 1886-1895, to her mother, Mabel Bayard Kane Bird, and letters, 1899-1909, to members of her family while on various trips abroad. The latter include her reports on the Messina, Sicily, earthquake of December, 1908, and her role in rendering nursing assistance to the victims, for which the Italian Government awarded her a medal. The bulk of the collection consists of incoming personal correspondence, 1886-1943, along with some draft replies by Miss Kane. Principal correspondents are various family members, including several generations of siblings, cousins and nieces: sisters Jean Duval Leiper Kane Foulke, Elizabeth Bayard Kane Norris Rhein, Anne Francis (Nancy) Kane and brother J[ames] A[shton] Bayard Kane; cousins Eliza Middleton Kane Cope, with whom Miss Kane often made her home, Francis Fisher Kane, Philadelphia lawyer and U.S. attorney for Eastern Pennsylvania from 1913 to 1920, Elisha Kent Kane, prohibition advocate, and Helen Hamilton Shields Stockton; nieces Jean Kane Foulke DuPont and Florence Foulke Bird. Additionally, there are letters from various friends, particularly: Langdon Elwyn Mitchell, playwright; Mary Moss, author and travelling companion of Miss Kane, who was with her at the time of the Sicilian earthquake; Maria Lansdale, with whom Florence often lived in Philadelphia; Etta de Vitti, Marchese de Vitti de Marco at whose home Florence often stayed while in Italy; Mary Sterrett Gittings, an old Baltimore friend; Emily Hobhouse, outspoken English opponent of the Boer War and pacifist in WWI; Margaret Munro Elder Dow, author and biographer of Elisha Kent Kane: Sarah Northcliff Cleghorne, author and poet. For Miss Kane's flirtation with a librarian's career the correspondence 1897-1903 includes letters from Bryn Mawr College President M. Carey Thomas. Letters to Florence at the time of the Messina earthquake, 1909, concern the supply and use of financial aid provided by her family and friends in America. Florence's interest in prison reform is evident from letters of penologist Thomas Mott Osborne, 1914-1918, and others. Miss Kane worked sporadically for a number of years organizing the papers of the Wister family, and Owen Wister, author, wrote her on this and other subjects, 1913-1935. The miscellaneous section contains solicitations, acknowledgements, newsletters, and flyers of various conservation, philanthropic, civic, and international organizations; pamphlets, articles, clippings; collected poems and quotations, receipted bills, medical prescriptions, addresses; photographs. Florence's sister, Anne Francis (Nancy) Kane, aspired to a literary career. Her death at age 24 was much lamented by family and friends, especially Langdon Elwyn Mitchell who was to become a noted playwright. A group of Nancy Kane's manuscripts are interspersed with Mitchell's translations and some writings.
