Last Modified: 3/21/03 Webmaster: Alex Newman Historical Chautauqua Characters Meriwether Lewis (1774-1809) A Virginian and Army captain, Meriwether Lewis became President Jefferson's private secretary in 1801. Under Jefferson's direction, Lewis planned an exploration of a route west to the Pacific coast of North America. In addition to command of the Corps of Discovery, as the group was called, Lewis served as the party's naturalist. On the expedition, he collected plant, animal and mineral specimens. Lewis died by his own hand in 1809. Portrayed by Clay Jenkinson William Clark (1770-1838) Meriwether Lewis invited William Clark, also an army captain, to serve as the co-leader of the expedition. In addition to sharing command, Clark also had record-keeping duties. Especially important were the maps he created of the party's route. After Lewis' death, Clark became responsible for the publication of the expedition's journals. After the expedition, Clark held several public offices in St. Louis, including Superintendant of Indian Affairs. Portrayed by Brian Kral George Drouillard (born ca. 1775; died ca. 1810)

35. General Information The Astor Library was created through the generosity of John Jacob Astor (17631848),a German immigrant who at his death was the wealthiest man in America. http://www.nypl.org/admin/pro/nypl.info.html

General Information The New York Public Library, Astor, Lenox and Tilden Foundations, comprises 4 research centers in Manhattan, and 82 branch libraries in Manhattan, the Bronx, and Staten Island. With more materials than any other public library in the nation, it is also the largest research library with a circulating system in the world. Currently, Elizabeth Rohatyn serves as Chairman of the Library's Board of Trustees. Dr. Paul LeClerc serves as the Library's President. History The Lions History The origins of this institution date back to the time when New York was emerging as one of the world's most important cities. By the second half of the 19th century, New York had already surpassed Paris in population and was quickly catching up with London, the world's most populous city. Fortunately, this burgeoning and somewhat brash metropolis counted among its citizens men who foresaw that if New York was indeed to become one of the world's great centers of urban culture, it must also have a great library. Prominent among them was one-time governor Samuel J. Tilden (1814-1886), who upon his death bequeathed the bulk of his fortune-about $2.4 million-to "establish and maintain a free library and reading room in the city of New York."
