About the author
Frederic B. Kellogg was an American Episcopal clergyman, identified in historical records as Frederic Brainerd Kellogg. He was born on November 28, 1909, in Morristown, New Jersey, and died on July 19, 1958, in Groton, Massachusetts.
He is best known as the author of Nine O'Clock Talks. Project Gutenberg describes the book as a collection of religious sermons and reflections connected with his work as chaplain to Episcopal students at Christ Church in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which helps place his writing in a thoughtful, pastoral setting.
Only a small amount of biographical information appears to be easily available online, but the surviving record suggests a writer whose work grew directly out of ministry, conversation, and spiritual guidance. That gives his book a personal, lived-in quality that still feels approachable.
