Born in Saint John New Brunswick he and his family moved to Waltham Massachusetts in 1905. Nathan studied in a dry goods economist training school in New York City. He rejoined his family who had moved back to Montreal and sold shoes from the age of 15 subsequently working as a traveling salesman for a shoe manufacturer. He set up his own shoe factory which unfortunately floundered during the depression. Undeterred he invested in the Canadian biscuit and candy company McCormicks a successful business which he sold to Weston. He later worked for and acquired the coffee tea & sugar chain C.D. Kenny Company and expanded his holdings creating a business empire which eventually became Consolidated Foods Corporation which was subsequently renamed the Sara Lee Corporation. He had little interest in art until as he said "An advertising man convinced me that I should have a painting made of the view from my window." Cummings liked it so much he had another painting done of the view at night and his interest in collecting was born. Cummings went on to collect French Impressionist paintings modern sculpture ancient Peruvian ceramics and the works of Henry Moore Pablo Picasso Marc Chagall Greoges Braque among others. He became a major philanthropist donating to hospitals universities arts organizations. He endowed the Nathan Cummings Arts Center at Stanford University and the Joanne and Nathen Cummings Art Center at Connecticut College in New London.</p><p>The recipient Jean Dalrymple 1902-1998 was the dynamic producer and director of theater and light-opera at Manhattan's City Center.

0006967Lansing MI: Lansing Review Co. / Wesley Emery 1896. Revised edition. Paperback. Near Fine. 24mo 112 pages printed wrappers. Uncommon. <br/><br/>"Mrs. Emery's rhetoric left no doubt of the sustained purposefulness of the scheme - described as 'villainous robbery' and as having been 'secured through the most soulless strategy." She was most explicit about the so-called "crime of 1873' the demonetization of silver giving a fairly full statement of the standard greenback-silverite myth concerning that event. As they had it an agent of the Bank of England Ernest Seyd by name had come to the United States in 1872 with $500000 with which he had brought enough support in Congress to secure the passage of the demonetization measure. This measure was supposed to have greatly increased the value of American four percent bonds held by British capitalists by making it necessary to pay them in gold only. To it Mrs. Emery attributed the panic of 1873 its bankruptcies and its train of human disasters: 'Murder insanity suicide divorce drunkenness and all forms of immorality and crime have increased from that day to this in the most appalling ratio' - Richard Hofstadter."
