Learn About Famous Gloucester Writers

Customers loiter outside the Proctor Brothers Gloucester paper goods store circa the 1880s. T.S. Eliot bought a notebook here as a teenager in which he wrote some of the most famous poems of the 20th century, including the masterful “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.” Also, the Gloucester Daily Times started publishing here in 1888. (Photo courtesy of the Cape Ann Museum.)
