A scholar and a professor of English at Columbia University for nearly 40 years, Mark Van Doren inspired a generation of influential writers and thinkers including Thomas Merton, Robert Lax, John Berryman, Whittaker Chambers, and Beat Generation writers such as Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac. He was literary editor of The Nation, in New York City (1924–1928), and its film critic, 1935 to 1938. He was a strong advocate of liberal education, and his notable work, Liberal Education, helped promote the influential "great books" movement.
