The Elizebeth Smith Friedman Collection

Biographical Sketch

One of the twentieth century’s leading cryptologists, Elizebeth Smith Friedmanwas born on August 26, 1892 in Huntington, Indiana. Elizebeth grew up in Huntingtonon her parent’s farm before leaving to attend Wooster College in Ohio in 1913.Following two years at Wooster, Elizebeth transferred to Hillsdale College to be closer toher ailing mother where she completed a BA in 1915. While in college the youngElizebeth became engrossed in the Shakespeare-Bacon controversy over the authorship ofShakespearean works. She took ajob with Mrs. Elizabeth Wells Gallop in Geneva,Illinois at the Riverbank Laboratories owned by Colonel George Fabyan to work ondeciphering this literary mystery. It was at Riverbank that Elizebeth met her futurehusband, William F. Friedman, who was working as a geneticist at the time. The youngcouple married on May 21, 1917. During the First World War, the Friedmans acted asdirectors of an unofficial code-brealcing team employed by the National Government. In1920 the Friedmans moved to Washington, D.C. where Mrs. Friedman took a post withthe War Department. She later worked for the Department of the Navy, th&TreasuryDepartment, where she helped break smugglers’ codes during Prohibition and acted as anarcotics agent in the 193 Os, and the International Monetary Fund in the late 1940s.

In addition to her work as a government code breaker, Mrs. Friedman, often inclose association with her husband, worked on a number of special investigations ofpersonal interest. Mrs. Friedman returned to the Shakespeare-Bacon controversy in the1950s, and in an award winning book “The Shakespearean Ciphers Examined” she andher husband concluded that Shakespeare was indeed the author of the works attributed tohim. Other areas of interest that she investigated were ancient Mayan and Inca writing,the history of the Alphabet, the mysteries surrounding the Beale Treasure and themedieval Voynich Manuscript, and the Pearl Harbor attack investigation. She was amember of many civic organisations such as the League of Women Voters and the UnitedStates Daughters of 1812. She was also a respected public speaker. In addition to theirdefinitive work on Shakespeare, the Friedmans also wrote many articles for bothcommercial as well as scholarly publications.

In her personal life, Mrs. Friedman took an active interest in her two children,Barbara and John, and enjoyed a close relationship with her husband William. After herretirement from government work, Mrs. Friedman helped to assist her husband in thepreparation of their personal library of cryptological material which they donated to theGeorge C. Marshall Foundation in 1969. The same year that the Friedmans donated theirLibrary to the Marshall Foundation, William F. Friedman died. Mrs. Friedman survivedher husband by eleven years. During this period, she lived with both her daughter andson at different times. Elizebeth Friedman died on October 31, 1980 in North Plainsfield,New Jersey at the age of 88.
