Biographical Cyclopedia of American Women
"STEPHENS, KATE, author, daughter of Nelson Timothy and Elizabeth Lydia (Rathbone) Stephens, was born in Moravia, New York, February 27, 1853. Her ancestors, native English stock, located during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in this country, where New York and the New England States now are situated. Kate Stephens received her early education in the schools of Auburn, New York, and Hartford, Connecticut. She then studied at the University of Kansas, where she was graduated A.B. in 1875, and A.M. in 1878. While pursuing her college course she also received private instruction from tutors, including professors from Harvard University and the University of Berlin. In 1878 she was offered, and accepted, the assistant professorship of Greek and Latin in the University of Kansas. In 1879, a separate chair of Greek having been established, Miss Stephens accepted the professorship of that department, which she held until 1885. Her general experiences in public life, and her special observation of conditions governing women in private life, led her to a systematic study of the status of women. For the American Supplement of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, and for The Forum, The Atlantic Monthly, The Bookman and other periodicals, she wrote various articles on this subject, and, several of her later essays she published, individually. As Junior Editor of the Heart of Oak Books, she did her first work in compilation. The Senior Editor, Charles Eliot Norton, refers to her work as follows: 'I regret that I am not allowed to mention by name one without whose help the books would not have been made, and to whose hand most of the Notes are due.' Miss Stephens later became Editor of a number of educational books, individual or in series, which have achieved marked popularity and wide usefulness. Some of these are: the Macmillan Stories from American History; Johnson's Life of Pope (1897), Stories from Old Chronicles (1909), Heroes Every Child Should Know (1907) and Heroines Every Child Should Know (1908). In the last one she was co-editor with Hamilton Wright Mabie. In addition, Miss Stephens has edited certain English Classics."
