George Frederick McKay

George Frederick McKay was born in town of Harrington, Washington. His family moved to Spokane, where he attended school up to his college years. In 1923, he became the first graduate in composition studies at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York. His interest was American folk-song, including jazz and blues and Native American music. In 1927, he returned to the University of Washington, where he taught, composed, and led performances. In 1952, he was commissioned by the Seattle Symphony to compose the city's Centennial Symphony, now known as "Evocation Symphony" or "Symphony for Seattle". Over the course of his career, McKay composed 70 orchestral works, and a total of nearly 1000 musical titles. He also wrote several papers and books on musical technique. He is believed to have been the most published American composer during the mid-twentieth century.

George Gissing

George Robert Gissing was an English novelist who published twenty-three novels between 1880 and 1903. Although his early works are naturalistic, he developed into one of the the most accomplished realists of the late-Victorian era. Born in Wakefield, Yorkshire, England, to lower-middle class parents, Gissing went on to win a scholarship to Owens College, the present day Victoria University of Manchester. A brilliant student, he excelled at university, winning many coveted prizes, including the Shakespeare scholarship prize in 1875. Between 1891 and 1897, he produced his best works, which include New Grub Street, Born in Exile, The Odd Women, In the Year of Jubilee, and The Whirlpool. By the end of the century, critics placed him with Thomas Hardy and George Meredith as one of three leading novelists in England. He was friends with H. G. Wells and his wife. Source Wikipedia
