May Hill Arbuthnot (August 27, 1884 – October 2, 1969) was an educator, editor, writer, and critic who devoted her career to the awareness and importance of children's literature. Her efforts expanded and enriched the selection of books for children, libraries, and children’s librarians alike. She was selected for ''American Libraries'' article “100 Most Important Leaders we had for the 20th Century”.〔Kniffel, L., Sullivan, K., and McCormick, E. (1999). 100 of the most important leaders we had in the 20th century. ''American Libraries''. 30:11 39.〕 ==Early history and education==
Born in Mason City, Iowa to Frank and Mary (Seville) Hill in 1884, May Hill grew up in many different cities, going to school in Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Illinois. She grew up fond of books, with both a mother and father who were avid readers, and spent time reading the ''Book of Common Prayer''.〔Sutherland, Z. (1980). Arbuthnot. In Sicherman, B., and Green, C. H. (eds.) ''Notable American Women: The Modern Period: A Biographical Dictionary, v.4.'' (pp. 30-31). Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press.〕 May Hill graduated from Hyde Park High School in Chicago, Illinois in 1912. Because of financial issues, May Hill did not attend college towards her baccalaureate until nine years later. Instead, she received a k-primary supervisor certificate from the University of Chicago in 1913. Hill eventually went on to receive her baccalaureate from the same university in 1922. May also earned her graduate degree from Columbia University in 1924.〔 May Hill married Charles Crisswell Arbuthnot in 1932. They met later in her career, while he was head of the economics department at Western Reserve University (now Case Western Reserve University).〔Miller, M. (2003). Arbuthnot, May Hill. In Miller, M.
