Daniel Albright (October 29, 1945 – January 3, 2015) was the Ernest Bernbaum Professor of Literature at Harvard and the editor of ''Modernism and Music: An Anthology of Sources''. He was born and grew up in Chicago, Illinois and completed his undergraduate studies on a full scholarship at Rice in 1967. He received his MPhil in 1969 and PhD in 1970, both from Yale. Albright is also the author of the book ''Quantum Poetics'' which was published by ''Cambridge University Press'' in 1997. He held an NEH fellowship from 1973-1974, was a Guggenheim Fellow from 1976-1977, and more recently, he was a 2012 Berlin Prize Fellow at the American Academy in Berlin. Albright began his undergraduate career as a mathematics major, but changed to English literature. Although trained at Yale as a literary critic, after the publication of his book ''Representation and the Imagination: Beckett, Kafka, Nabokov, and Schoenberg'', he was invited by the University of Rochester to come teach there as a kind of liaison between the department of English and the Eastman School of Music. At Rochester, he studied musicology, which forever changed his career. Much of his subsequent work has been on literature and music, culminating with his recent book, ''Panaesthetics'' which addresses many arts and examines to what extent the arts are many or are one. He was hired in 2003 in the Harvard departments of English, but later joined the Comparative Literature department and soon began offering courses in the Music department as well. ==Positions held== * Assistant Professor, University of Virginia, 1970-75 * Associate Professor, University of Virginia, 1975-81 * Professor, University of Virginia, 1981-87 * Visiting Professor, Universität München, 1986-87 * Professor, University of Rochester, 1987-2003 * Richard L.
