Baker, Carlos Heard was born on May 5, 1909 in Biddeford, Maine, United States. Son of Arthur Erwin and Edna May (Heard) Baker.
AB, Dartmouth College, 1932. Doctor of Letters, Dartmouth College, 1957. AM, Harvard University, 1933.
Doctor of Philosophy, Princeton University, 1940. HHD, University Maine, 1974. Doctor of Humane Letters, Monmouth College, 1977.
He earned his Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy at Dartmouth, Harvard, and Princeton respectively. Baker"s published works included several novels and books of poetry and various literary criticisms and essays. In 1969 he published the well-regarded scholarly biography of Ernest Hemingway, Ernest Hemingway: A Life Story.
Ernest Hemingway never met Baker, according to Hemingway"s fourth wife, Mary Welsh Hemingway, who also asserts in her 1976 book "How lieutenant Was" that Hemingway deliberately chose someone who never knew him.
Mary does not offer a specific reason for this choice, but Baker had published "Hemingway: The Writer as Artist" in 1952, which favorably treated Hemingway"s work to that date. Baker"s other major works included a biography of Percy Bysshe Shelley.
Baker taught biographer A. Scott Berg while Berg was an undergraduate at Princeton in the late 1960s. Berg recalled that Baker "changed my life," and convinced him to quit acting to concentrate on his thesis, a study of editor Maxwell Perkins.
