George McKendree Steele
The Rev. Dr. George McKendree Steele, D.D., LL.D. (April 13, 1823 – 1901?) was an American educator and Methodist minister, president of Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin from 1865-1879. He was the author of the 1876 pamphlet ''The Currency Question'', which was regarded as a major statement of the philosophy of the Greenback movement; and was a Greenback Party nominee for Congress and other public office.〔Usher, Ellis B.
