Biography

Charles Scribner, Jr., 1854-1927, president of Charles Scribner’s Sons, publishers, 1879-1928

He was born in New York City on October 18, 1854. He joined his father's publishing company in 1875 after his Princeton graduation. When the other partners in the venture sold their stake to the family, the company was renamed Charles Scribner's Sons. In 1884, Scribner's younger brother, Arthur Hawley Scribner, joined Charles Scribner's Sons. The book publishing business was highly successful, and in 1886 Scribner's Magazine was relaunched. It too was a great success. In 1889, Scribner was a founding member of the American Publishers Association. He was a trustee at Skidmore College.

He died on April 19, 1930.
