Alexander McCurdy
Alexander McCurdy, Jr. (August 18, 1905, Eureka, California – June 1, 1983, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) was an organist and educator who taught a generation of America's most-prominent performers.〔"Alexander McCurdy Jr., Organist", Burr Van Atta.

==Education and family==
After overcoming early struggles with infantile paralysis, McCurdy moved east to study organ with T. Tertius Noble. Dr. Noble was unable to take any more students and so suggested that McCurdy study instead with the great Lynnwood Farnam, first in New York (1924–1927) and then in Philadelphia's newly established Curtis Institute of Music. In 1931, McCurdy became one of the Institute's earliest graduates,〔http://www.curtis.edu/alumni/about-alumni/full-alumni-listing〕 and received his diploma at the first official commencement ceremony in 1934.〔http://archive.org/stream/overtones1934curt/overtones1934curt_djvu.txt〕 He had already made his professional debut at New York's Town Hall in 1926, and thereafter toured as a recitalist, often in duo performances with his wife since 1932, harpist Flora Greenwood. They had two children, Alexander "Sandy" McCurdy III (a prominent minister and psychoanalyst) and Xandra McCurdy Schultz (whose son produced a televised mini-documentary about his organist grandfather).〔("In Search of Alexander" ), (''State of the Arts: American Originals'' ), New Jersey Network Public Television, May 21, 2005.〕
