He was born in New York on March 16, 1875, of a family which had already won laurels for itself in drama. His father, Steele MacKaye, wrote some twenty-five plays in about the same number of years, and the son, Percy, has written more than twenty-five in fourteen years. Mr. MacKaye was educated at Harvard University, and later studied at the University of Leipzig. Dartmouth College conferred upon him the honorary degree of Master of Arts in 1914. He has traveled extensively in Europe, residing a different times at Rome, Brunnen (Switzerland), Leipzig, and London. From 1900 to 1904 he taught in a private school in New York. But since that time he has been engaged entirely in dramatic art. He is a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters. Mr. MacKaye's efforts in the dramatic field have been varied. He has to his credit masques, pageants, operas, as well as plays; and he is, in addition, an able lecturer and contributor to magazines.
