T. S. Eliot (1888-1965), who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1948, earned both of his degrees from Harvard University, where he also went on to become the Charles Eliot Norton Professor of Poetry. Here he is shown surrounded by his students at Harvard in a photograph that Reed made while on assignment for Life.
