==Biography==
Scribner was born on February 25, 1936 in Washington, D.C.,〔 the son of a Maryland clergyman appointed the year before he was born.〔Pamela Sommers, ''Choral Arts, Still in Perfect Harmony at 25'', Washington Post, June 2, 1990, p. C03 (noting that he was the son of a Maryland clergyman)〕〔''Reception Held For New Pastor, Gaithersburg Epworth League Honors Minister'', Washington Post, Jul. 7, 1935, p. S5 (noting the appointment of Rev. Norman Scribner as minister of Epworth M.E. Church)〕 While in high school, he would "rac() to the church at 4 a.m. each morning to practice scales," but following his father's death, "financial necessity compelled him to focus on more lucrative forms of music making: church jobs."〔Pamela Sommers, ''Choral Arts, Still in Perfect Harmony at 25'', Washington Post, June 2, 1990, p. C03〕 He attended the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore, graduating with honors in 1961. He studied organ with Paul Callaway and music theory with Walter Spencer Huffman.〔 While still a student at Peabody, he formed the Baltimore Choral Society and "()o perfection-oriented was he that he held sectionals for a junior choir and rigorous auditions" for the group.〔
In 1960, after "a stint in the Army," he accepted a position as musical staff assistant for the Washington National Cathedral, choirmaster of St. Alban's Episcopal Church, and chapel organist for the St. Albans School for Boys.〔 (He served at St. Alban's Church until his retirement in 2007.)〔(Norman Scribner Retirement Celebration ), St. Alban's Chronicle, May 2007〕 In 1960 he also joined the faculty at American University, serving there until 1963. He later joined the faculty at George Washington University from 1963–1969, and served on the faculty of the College of Church Musicians of Washington National Cathedral.〔Choral Arts Society, (Norman Scribner, ''Artistic Director & Founder'' ), visited Aug. 20, 2010〕
