About the author

The Pleiades Club was not a single author but a Greenwich Village association of artists and art-minded members in New York. Founded in 1896 and incorporated in 1902, it became known for weekly dinners, performances, scholarships for emerging artists, and its own publications.

The group published a yearbook, and Pleiades Club Year Book 1910 is credited to the club itself. That makes this book best understood as a collaborative record of a creative community rather than the work of one individual writer.

Today, the club is remembered as part of the cultural life of old Greenwich Village, with archival collections and public-domain editions helping preserve its history.
