From the 2603-26-JG-253, Mark Eccles obituary in the Independent: NO ONE has made fuller and better use of England's public records than the American Shakespeare scholar Mark Eccles. His researches in the manuscript records of the Public Record Office, the London Guildhall, the Corporation of London, Westminster, and London and Warwickshire parishes were the basis for a career of biographical writing that made him the world's leading authority on the lives of English Renaissance writers and actors……Eccles was born in Oxford, Ohio in 1905, and grew up in Washington, DC. In 1927 he graduated from Oberlin College summa cum laude in English and Classics, and became an instructor at Harvard University in 1930, earning his PhD there in 1932. From 1934 until he retired in 1976 he was on the staff of the University of Wisconsin at Madison, teaching Shakespeare, drama and contemporary literature, and supervising 50 doctoral dissertations.
