Mathew Carey
Mathew Carey (January 28, 1760 – September 16, 1839) was an Irish-born American publisher and economist who lived and worked in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
==Early life and education==
Carey was born in Dublin into a middle-class family in 1760. He entered the bookselling and printing business in 1775, and when still only seventeen published a pamphlet criticizing dueling. This publication was quickly followed by another work criticizing the severity of the Irish penal code, and another criticizing Parliament. As a result, the British House of Commons threatened him with prosecution, and Carey fled to Paris in 1781.〔http://www.encyclopedia.com/topic/Mathew_Carey.aspx〕 There he met Benjamin Franklin, the ambassador representing the American Revolutionary forces, who achieved independence that year. Franklin took Carey on to work in his printing office.
Carey worked for Franklin for a year before returning to Ireland, where he edited two Irish nationalist newspapers, ''The Freeman's Journal'' and ''The Volunteer's Journal''.〔Davidson, Cathy N., Ed. ''Reading in America: Literature and Social History.'' Baltimore: Johns Hopkins UP, 1989, p. 159.〕 To avoid imprisonment and prosecution by the British, Carey dressed as a woman and snuck on a ship to emigrate to the newly independent United States in September 1784.〔Davidson, Cathy N., p. 159.〕
