Henry Thomas, pen name of Henry Thomas Schnittkind (1886-1970), received his Ph.D. from Harvard University and was a professor at Boston University. He wrote more than thirty adult and juvenile books and his shorter work appeared in many national magazines. In "Who's Who" he listed his hobby as "education of the masses." Of his writing he once said, "In my biographies I [try] to introduce the world's great thoughts and deeds through the personalities of the world's great thinkers and doers."
