About the author

Abram J. (Abram Jesse) Dittenhoefer

1836–1919

A South Carolina–born lawyer, judge, and political organizer, he played a lively role in New York’s Republican politics during the Civil War era and later wrote a firsthand memoir about helping elect Abraham Lincoln. His career also made him known as a sharp legal mind in theatrical and stage-related cases.
