Harold Loeb
Harold Albert Loeb (1891–1974) was an American writer, notable as an important American figure in the arts among expatriates in Paris in the 1920s. In 1921 he was the founding editor of the international literary and art magazine, ''Broom,'' which was first published in New York.
==Early life, education, marriage and the war==
Harold Albert Loeb was born into a wealthy Jewish family in New York City. His mother, Rose, was related to the Guggenheims, and his father, Albert, was a successful investment banker with Kuhn, Loeb & Company. Harold was a maternal cousin of Peggy Guggenheim. The young Loeb attended Princeton University, where he earned his B.A. in 1913. After earning his degree, he moved to Empress, Alberta, Canada, working on a ranch and later laying concrete for the Canadian Pacific Railway.〔Sarason, 1980, p. 251〕
In 1914, he returned to New York, where he married Marjorie Content, daughter of a wealthy stockbroker and his wife. They returned to a rural life in Alberta for a period, where their son and daughter were born in 1915 and 1916, respectively.〔Sarason, 1980, p. 251〕
The United Kingdom's declaration of war on Germany made it impossible for Loeb to continue working as a foreigner in Canada. In 1917, the Loebs returned to New York.〔Sarason, 1980, p. 251〕 The next year, Loeb moved to San Francisco, where he worked for the Guggenheims as a purchaser for the American Smelting and Refining Company. When the United States entered the war, Loeb joined the military. Due to his poor eyesight, Loeb was not sent overseas but assigned to a desk job in New York.〔Kondritzer, 1984, p. 4; Sarason 1980, p. 251〕
