Biographical Note
Norris Houghton (1909-2001) was a theatrical producer, director and designer, as well as an author and influential advocate for arts education. Houghton's main roles reflect his chosen life as a "generalist" or a "theatre man." Born in Indianapolis, Houghton discovered theater at an early age, when his grandmother took him to see a production of The Taming of the Shrew. By the age of 14, he was creating short play festivals in his family home and by 16, he had created two Christmas pageants for his church. Houghton attended Princeton, where he joined the Triangle Club, the oldest collegiate musical-comedy group in the nation. He became the stage and costume designer, as well as the club's vice-president. After graduation, he became stage manager for the University Players on Cape Cod, where he met Henry Fonda and Margaret Sullivan. In 1934, as a Guggenheim fellow Houghton traveled to the Soviet Union, where he met Russian directors Konstantin Stanislavsky and Vsevolod Meyerhold just as a golden era of Russian theater was coming to an end. His trip to Moscow turned Houghton into an expert on the Russian theater and into one of few Americans to witness firsthand some of the legendary productions, like "The Anonymous Cuckold", directed by Meyerhold. Houghton also attended the jubilee performance of Chekhov's "Cherry Orchard" at the Moscow Arts Theater on January 30, 1935, which starred many of the play's original actors. Houghton taught at Columbia University and was later chairman of the Drama Department at Vassar College and the director of the Experimental Theater. At the end of his career Norris Houghton was a teacher and scholar of the theater, having written numerous books, articles, and reviews. His last full time position was at the State University in Purchase, N.Y., where he was the first dean of the Division of Theater Arts and Film.
