Denton was born on January 9, 1841 on a farm near the village of Mt. Gilead, Ohio, United States, the son of John R. and Catherine (Prather) Snider. His mother died when he was six years old, and the family was separated. The boy passed an arduous childhood.
He attended several schools and finally entered Oberlin College, where he received the degree of A. B. in 1862.
Snider enlisted in the Union Army, rose to be second lieutenant, served for a time under William Starke Rosecrans, and resigned after a year of service because of ill health.
As soon as his strength was regained he began, March 1864, to teach Greek and Latin in the College of the Christian Brothers in St. Louis, Missouri. In the fall of 1866 he entered Brokmeyer's law office, chiefly, as he said, in order to become "a pupil of the University Brokmeyer in person". He was a frequent contributor to the Journal of Speculative Philosophy.
Drawn by William Torrey Harris into the St. Louis schools, where he taught from 1867 to 1877, he declined to be made assistant superintendent, refusing to sacrifice intellectual freedom to professional advancement. The years 1877-79 he spent in Europe, mainly in Greece. He then returned to St. Louis and resumed his position in the high school but resigned after a year, unable to stomach the formalized methods of instruction.
Every summer for a number of years he lectured in Harris' Concord School of Philosophy, where he rather scandalized the natives by his lack of reverence for the Concord tradition. During the same period he taught Homer, Sophocles, Herodotus, and Thucydides to persons studying kindergarten methods in the kindergarten training-school of Susan Elizabeth Blow in St. Louis. He spent the next thirteen years, 1884-97, in lecture tours, chiefly in the Middle West, centering about Chicago.
The more important of his writings fall into three groups: the earliest in inception, dealing with Greece and Rome, includes in prose A Walk in Hellas (2 vols. , 1881 - 82) and in verse Delphic Days (1880), Agamemmon's Daughter (1885); the chief product of his middle period was a series of nine volumes of commentaries, three on Shakespeare, two each on Homer, Dante, and Goethe; his final period brought forth a number of volumes fitted into a grand philosophic or, as he preferred to call it, "psychologic" system, the most significant of these being Psychology and the Psychosis (1890).
He finally returned in 1897 to the birthplace of the movement and spend his long declining years there, devoting his energy mainly to writing. His last years were passed at the home of a friend, William H. Miner, where he died in 1925.
Denton Jaques Snider was an influencial voluminous writer in the fields of philosophy, psychology, and education. He published more than forty volumes at his own expense, the most famous his works - "A Walk in Hellas", "World’s-Fair Studies" and others. His chief educational achievements were the establishment of a few weeks' Goethe school in Milwaukee and the establishment of a ten weeks' literary school in Chicago. It was he more than any other who carried the idealism of the St. Louis movement to the intellectually starved and spiritually hungry cities of the Middle W.

He was one of the original members of the St. Louis Philosophical Society, founded in January 1866.
He knew five foreign languages - Greek, Latin, French, German, and Italian. Tall, slender, with black mustache and fiery manner. Suffering from varicose veins, he always composed while standing or walking about his room, using the back of a chair as an improvised desk.
In August 1867 he was married to Mary Krug, who bore him three children before her death in 1874. On October 21, 1916, he married Mrs. Augusta (Siemon) Sander, an admiring disciple forty years his junior.
