An Introduction to America’s Music

W. W. NORTON & COMPANY has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder

Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton fi rst published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the

adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The fi rm soon expanded its program be-

yond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By mid-

century, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program—trade books and college texts—were

fi rmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its em-

ployees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and

professional titles published each year—W. W. Norton & Company stands as the largest and oldest

publishing house owned wholly by its employees.
