William Ellery Leonard

William Ellery Leonard (born January 25, 1876, in Plainfield, New Jersey; died May 22, 1944, in Madison, Wisconsin) was an American poet and literary scholar.

Personal life

Leonard suffered from lifelong agoraphobia, which not only kept him confined to the area of his home and university campus but increased with age to the point that, in the last years of his life, he conducted all lectures from his home. He married Charlotte Freeman, the daughter of his landlord, in 1909. The marriage was short lived, however; she committed suicide on May 4, 1910.

Legacy

Today the William Ellery Leonard House is on the list of Registered Historic Places in Madison, Wisconsin.
