He was instructor in elocution at Harvard from 1878 to 1881, and appeared as Oedipus Tyrannus in the Greek play given in Sanders Theatre in 1881. He has since given Shakesperian and other readings in the principal American cities, and is well known for his imitations of the accent and mannerisms of leading actors.
The reading is open only to members of the Union.
