Bailey, I. W., 1884-

Hide Profile

Bailey (1884-1967) was educated at Harvard University (A.B. 1907; A.M. 1909) and, as a botanist, was associated with Harvard for most of his career -- first at the Bussey Institution and later at the Arnold Arboretum and the Gray Herbarium. During World War I he headed the wood section of the Bureau of Aircraft Production. Bailey also authored the controversial "Bailey Plan" (1945) which recommended the unification of botanical activities at Harvard.
