SUMMARY:"Dan Patch: The 20th Century's Greatest Forgotten Celebrity"
LOCATION:Downtown Hamilton\, 221 High Street\, Hamilton\, OH 45011
DESCRIPTION:Born in 1896 in Oxford\, Indiana\, by 1905\, Dan Patch was one
  of most recognized sports figures in America. Songs were written to comm
 emorate his accomplishments\, and his name could be found endorsing every
 thing from tobacco to washing machines\, toys\, cars\, and even railway l
 ines. Yet despite being one of the country’s greatest sports heroes\, whe
 n he died in 1916\, he was interred in an unmarked grave. Dan Patch’s leg
 acy lives on\, though\, as the 20th century’s greatest forgotten celebrit
 y\, on either two or four legs.\n\nSusan Spellman is Professor of History
  and chair of the Department of Humanities and Creative Arts at Miami Uni
 versity. She is the author of "Cornering the Market: Independent Grocers 
 and Innovation in American Small Business" (Oxford University Press\, 201

  the 2005 Russel B. Nye Award for the Outstanding Article published in th
 e Journal of Popular Culture\, the 2011 J. Franklin Jameson Fellowship fr
 om the American Historical Association and Library of Congress\, and has 
 held fellowships from the Harvard Business School and National Museum of 
 American History\, among others. She also is a longtime fan of horse raci
 ng.\n\nExplore our Miami Downtown Hamilton webpage at MiamiOH.edu/Regiona
