Timeline
Ernest Samuels (May 19, 1903 in Chicago, Illinois – February 12, 1996 in Evanston, Illinois) was an American university professor and scholar of American literature.
He spent his career at Northwestern University and is best known for his biography of Henry Adams, which won several major prizes.
Born in Chicago, he received his Ph.B. in 1923 and J.D. in 1926 from the University of Chicago.
He moved to the southwest to recover from tuberculosis, staying in that part of the country and practicing law in El Paso, Texas.
He then moved back to Chicago, switching to literature and earning an M.A. in English from the University of Chicago in 1931.
During the Depression years 1931-1937 he practiced law in Chicago and taught business English at Bryant & Stratton Business College, for which he wrote a textbook.
From 1937 to 1939 he was an English instructor at the State College of Washington, now Washington State University, where he met and married Jayne Newcomer.
In 1942 he completed a Ph.D. in English at the University of Chicago with a dissertation on "The Early Career of Henry Adams."
He is best known for his 3-volume biography of Henry Adams (1948, 1958, 1964), for which he received the Parkman Prize, the Bancroft Prize, and the 1965 Pulitzer Prize for Biography or Autobiography, and he was a principal editor of the six-volume collection of the letters of Henry Adams (1982, 1988).
He then began teaching English at Northwestern University, serving as department chair from 1964 to 1966.
With the exception of a visiting professorship at the University of Southern California in 1966-67, he remained at Northwestern for his entire teaching career.
After retiring from Northwestern in 1971, Samuels concentrated exclusively on his writing.
He also wrote a two-volume biography of Bernard Berenson (1979, 1987), which is considered "the most authoritative and comprehensive" study of its subject.
The first volume was a finalist for a National Book Award.
His wife, Jayne Newcomer Samuels, assisted with most of his publications.
After they spent a year together at I Tatti, researching the Berenson archives, she co-edited Mary Berenson: A Self-Portrait from Her Diaries and Letters with Barbara Strachey, Mary Berenson's granddaughter, (1980).
Both Ernest and Jayne Samuels died in Evanston, Illinois, Ernest in 1996 and Jayne in 2013.
