This beautiful and historic townhouse located at 58 West Tenth Street was built in 1836, and remodeled by the architect Stanford White, who joined the three-story house on the front of the lot to the rear house with a one-story addition. Fireplaces in the main room of the rear structure are said to be some of Stanford White's first New York work. The structure in the rear of the lot was originally home to the celebrated Tile Club, a group of 31 notable New York painters, sculptors, and architects—including Winslow Homer, William Merritt Chase, J. Alden Weir, John Henry Twachtman, Ehilu Vedder, Edwin Austin Abbey, Arthur Burdett Frost, Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and Stanford White—who met here frequently between 1877 and 1887. At one time, the townhouse was the residence of Hamilton Fish Armstrong, longtime editor of Foreign Affairs Magazine. The land and structures were ultimately purchased by the Onassis family for use by New York University as a Greek cultural center, and for a time it served as NYU's center for both European Studies and International Affairs.
The beautiful reception floor, which features skylights and stained glass by 19th century master D. Maitland Armstrong, is an ideal setting for the intimate readings, literary salons, panel discussions, book parties, lectures, and seminars that are held in the house throughout the year.
Writers' Photographs
In February 2008, the Writers House unveiled its new permanent collection of photographs by Nancy Crampton, based on her 35 years of work with prominent writers. The 24 stunning black-and-white portraits displayed throughout the house capture such luminaries as John Ashbery, W. H. Auden, James Baldwin, Saul Bellow, Gwendolyn Brooks, E. L. Doctorow, Ralph Ellison, Galway Kinnell, Stanley Kunitz, Norman Mailer, Philip Roth, Anne Sexton, Kurt Vonnegut, and others. An exhibition was made possible by a gift from Lillian Vernon.
About Lillian Vernon
Born in Germany, Lillian Vernon emigrated to the United States with her family in 1937 before the onset of World War II. With only wedding gift money in her pocket, she placed an advertisement in Seventeen magazine for personalized purses and belts. She received an overwhelming response and her business was launched. The Lillian Vernon Corporation, founded in 1965, went public in 1987, making her the first woman to found a company publicly traded on the American stock exchange.
Lillian Vernon's many gifts to the NYU Creative Writing Program include the Lillian Vernon Creative Writers House, the Lillian Vernon Graduate Fellowship, and the Lillian Vernon Writer-in-Residence professorship which brings a prominent writer to Writers House to teach each spring. Lillian Vernon Writers-in-Residence have included Jayne Anne Phillips (2007), Anne Carson (2008), and Francine Prose (2009). Thanks to the generous support of Ms. Vernon, the Lillian Vernon
