HORNADAY, WILLIAM TEMPLE: 1854-1937.
William Temple Hornaday, son of William and Martha Varner Hornaday, was born near Plainfield, Ind., on Dec. 1, 1854. He studied at Iowa State College and was a student of zoology and museology in the U. S. and Europe. He received his D.Sc. degree from the University of Pittsburgh in 1906, A.M. from Yale in 1917, and Ph.M. from Iowa State College in 1923.
In 1874 he was employed by Henry A. Ward at his natural science establishment in Rochester and during the course of this employment was sent on expeditions to collect rare specimens in natural history. He visited Cuba, Florida, the West Indies, South America, India, Ceylon, the Malay peninsula, and Borneo from 1875 to 1879. In 1880 he founded the National Society of American Taxidermists. He served as chief taxidermist of the U. S. National Museum from 1882 to 1890 and in 1886 went to Montana in charge of a Smithsonian expedition for buffalo. He was in the real estate business from 1890 to 1896, then became director of the New York Zoological Park, a position he held until his retirement in 1926. A member of various zoological societies and the recipient of honors from foreign countries, he was active in promoting game preserves and new legislation for the protection of wild life.
He married Josephine Chamberlain in 1879 and died on March 6, 1937.
