Richard Watson Gilder (February 8, 1844 - November 19, 1909) was an American poet and editor. Gilder was born on February 8, 1844. During the American Civil War, he enlisted in the state's Emergency Volunteer Militia in Landis' Philadelphia Battery at the time of the Lee's 1863 invasion of Pennsylvania. After the Battle of Gettysburg, Gilder was mustered out. He became a reporter on the Newark (New Jersey) Advertiser. In 1870, he became editor of Hours at Home, a monthly magazine published by Scribner's. It merged with Scribner's Monthly. Gilder became editor. In November 1881, the monthly was renamed as The Century Magazine, and Gilder remained its editor until his death. Gilder took an active interest in all public affairs, especially those which tend towards reform and good government. He was one of the founders of the Society of American Architects, of the Authors' Club, and of the International Copyright League. He was a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He was a close friend of George MacDonald, Scottish poet, author, and preacher. Gilder received the degree of LL.D. from Dickinson College in 1883. Gilder was a member of the Simplified Spelling Board. He was a leader in the organization of the Citizens' Union, a founder and the first president of the Kindergarten Association, and of the New York Association for the Blind. Gilder was chairman of the first Tenement House Commission in New York City. The index includes many references to Theodore Roosevelt, Grover Cleveland, Samuel Clemens and other notables. Rosamond Gilder (born Janet Rosamond de Kay Gilder, 1891 - September, 1986) was an American theater critic. Gilder was a native of Marion, Massachusetts, daughter of writer Richard Watson Gilder. She was raised in New York City in artistic surroundings, and met such figures as Mark Twain, Jacob Riis, and Eleonora Duse. She began contributing articles to Theatre Arts Monthly during the 1920s, and joined its staff in 1936. Ten years later she succeeded Edith Isaacs in its editorship. In 1947 she was one of the founders of the International Theater Institute, in which role she promoted the idea of sending American theater companies to tour abroad. She was elected president of its American arm in 1963, remaining in the post until 1969. She spearheaded the production of numerous theatrical publications, and published articles and books on dramatic subjects as well. Gilder received a Tony Award in 1948 and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1950. In 1964 she was enrolled in the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.
