Robert Winslow Gordon (September 2, 1888 - March 26, 1961), educated at Harvard, he joined the English faculty at the University of California at Berkeley in 1918. In 1923, Gordon was asked by Arthur Sullivant Hoffman to run the folk music column, "Old Songs Men Have Sung", in Hoffman's magazine, ''Adventure''.〔Paul J. Stamler, "Robert Winslow Gordon", in Scott B. Spencer (ed.) ''The ballad collectors of North America : how gathering folksongs transformed academic thought and American identity''. Lanham, Md.: Scarecrow Press, 2012. ISBN 0810881551 (pp. 171-190).〕 Gordon accepted and used the ''Adventure'' column to collect information on traditional American music from the magazine's readers.〔 He was the founding head of the Archive of American Folk Song at the Library of Congress in 1928, later the Archive of Folk Culture, which became part of the American Folklife Center. He was a pioneer in using mechanical means to document folk musicians, originally using Edison cylinder recordings.〔 He is known among folk singers as the originator of the infamous Gordon "Inferno" Collection of American songs, and he also collected an early version of Kumbaya. From 1943 to 1958, he was a Professor of English at George Washington University. He died March 26, 1961.
