WINTHROP JOHN
VAN LE UVEN OSTERH O UT
August 2, 1871-April 9, 1964
BY L. R. BLINKS
WINTHROP JOHN VANLEUVEN OSTERHOUT was born in Brook-
lyn, New York, on August 2, 1871, a little over a century
ago. He died in New York, April 9, 1964. Elected to the Na-
tional Academy of Sciences in 1919, he lived to be one of its
older members (aged ninety-two). He greatly influenced the
course of biology in the United States, as it turned from a largely
descriptive into an experimental and analytical science. He was
one of the founders of the new discipline of general physiology,
through his own work and through his editorship of the Journal
of General Physiology, which he founded, with Jacques Loeb,
in 1918. He remained an editor for over forty-five years, and
trained many students who contributed to general physiology.
Winthrop Osterhout was the son of the Reverend John
Vanleuven Osterhout and Annie Loranthe Beman Osterhout.
the only child of Mr. and Mrs. R. Beman of Brooklyn. The
mother's family were English; she lived in Baltimore before
her marriage. The Osterhout family were Dutch, having come,
as the name implies, from the town of Oosterhout (East Wood)
south of the Rhine delta near Breda in the North Brabant
province of the Netherlands. Jan Jansen van Osterhout and his
wife, Annetje Gielis, came to New Amsterdam (later New York)
before 1653, and lived first in Brooklyn; they moved up the
Hudson, settling near Kingston. Later many family members

lived in the vicinity of Ellensville, in Ulster County, and Win-
throp's uncle William was a tanner in Tannersville, in the
Catskills.
There seem to be no New England ancestors to account for
the distinguished name of Winthrop, which may have been
given for some good friend. At the time of Winthrop's birth
his father was a Baptist minister in Webster, Massachusetts,
his congregation consisting largely of working people of very
small means. John Osterhout was an idealist who preferred to
minister to poor people, rather than seek a position at a
wealthier church. When Winthrop's mother and infant sister
died of typhoid fever in 1873, the boy was left without a nurse.
At first his father tried to care for the boy himself, and wrote
that "Winnie is a good little traveller," when he took his son
along wherever he went to preach. However, this arrangement
proved too difficult, and young Winthrop was sent to live with
his grandmother in Baltimore.
. · · ~ . .
This was apparently a happy
time, since Grandmother was easygoing and gave him much
freedom to play with boys of his own age on the street.
Meanwhile the elder Osterhout had remarried, but his
second wife died very soon, and Winthrop never knew her.
Finally, when he was eight years old, Winthrop moved to
Providence, Rhode Island, where his father had again re-
married; here he grew up under the care of his stepmother, who
was good to him, although never very close; she was a somewhat
formal person who always addressed her husband as Mr. Oster-
hout, or "Mr. O." However, Winthrop knew her as Mother;
she lived into the third decade of the next century. The parents
had bicycles and took trips on them, but the boy was not in-
cluded, and in general did not enjoy athletics. He did not
play games, not even tennis, and apparently did not have any
close boyhood friends that he could remember. In later life
his chief recreation was walking and rowing.
His father's church in Providence was also a poor one, and

the family never enjoyed affluence. Winthrop attended Bridg-
ham Grammar School and Providence High School; when he
was ten years old he got a job as errand boy in a bookstore,
where he had a chance to get acquainted with books. His em-
ployer liked him and allowed him to read; from then on most
of his leisure time was spent in reading. Finally, when he
entered Brown University in 1889, he was entranced by the col-
lection at the library. He at least glanced into every book on
the shelves to see whether the contents interested him—a feat
possible in 1890 but scarcely in any present university library!
He was interested mainly in literature, and was elected class
poet; he probably would have become a teacher of literature
had not one of those chance happenings deflected him to science.
In his junior year he met Professor H. C. Bumpus, who had
recently come to Brown from Olivet (a small Congregational
college in Michigan that had a remarkable succession of good
biologists on its staffs. Bumpus urged Osterhout to attend the
botany course at nearby Woods Hole, in the summer of 1892;
there the famous Marine Biological Laboratory, then only four
years old, was just getting established. Here were such biologists
as T. H. Morgan, E. G. Conklin, Frank Lillie, and Jacques
Loeb, who later became a very close friend. The teacher of the
botany course was W. A. Setchell, a recent Ph.D. of W. G.
Farlow's at Harvard and then Instructor at Yale.
Osterhout and Setchell often went on collecting expeditions.
Here began Osterhout's acquaintance with marine and fresh-
water algae—the organisms he was to exploit so successfully in
later research. One day he actually found Nitella in Nobska
Pond, though it was thirty years before its physiological ad-
vantages were recognized. (Fifty years later Osterhout was to
write Setchell's biography for the American Philosophical So-
ciety.)
Osterhout made such an impression on Setchell that the lat-
ter invited him to assist in the course next summer, which he
