Harrison Garfield Rhodes Exhibit

Daytona Beach, Florida 32114 Get Directions
Harrison Garfield Rhodes (known to his friends as "Hal") attended public school in Cleveland and graduated from Harvard in 1893. He was a successful playwright and prolific author and worked as a managing editor for two of his friends and college classmates who had established two magazines, 'The Chap Book' and 'The House Beautiful.' He later traveled widely both in the U.S. and throughout Europe as a literary agent and counted among his friends some of the most prominent authors of his time. After his mother's death in 1918, Harrison established seasonal residency in Daytona with his younger sister Margaret. From 1920 until his death, he continued to write and travel. Having recovered from two minor strokes, he made one final trip to his beloved Venice before he died in Hereford, England, on September 21, 1929. He never married.
