He was admitted to the bar worked as a lawyer in the community and as a librarian for new founded Cornell University. He went on to become a student of languages, and was offered a faculty position by President A.D. White and taught French, Italian, Spanish, and medieval literature. He was among the founders of the ''Journal of American Folklore''. He also served as the first Dean of the Arts College and later as Acting President of the University.

Today, he is remembered in Cornell's fight song, "Give My Regards to Davy", whose lyrics begin "''Give my regards to Davy / Remember me to Tee Fee Crane.'' "Tee Fee Crane" was a nickname given to Crane by students.
He is particularly noted for his collection ''Italian Popular Tales''. Many of its tales were published in the popular children's magazine ''St. Nicholas Magazine''.〔Brian Attebery, ''The Fantasy Tradition in American Literature'', p 65, ISBN 0-253-35665-2〕
