Administrative / Biographical history
Edward Gordon Craig (1872-1966):
Edward Gordon Craig was an actor, artist, wood-graver, writer, stage designer and puppeteer.
Born in Stevenage on 16 January 1872, he was the illegitimate son of Ellen Terry and the architect Edward William Godwin. He was known as Edward Godwin, until the age of 21, when he took the name Craig after the Scottish island Ailsa Craig.
Having grown up in the theatre, he began his career as an actor, joining Henry Irving and his mother at the Lyceum theatre; however, he was drawn more to art and began creating woodcuts, before moving into theatrical design. With the help of friend Martin Shaw, he produced several plays in London including Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, Handel's Acis and Galatea, and Ibsen's The Vikings at Helgeland.
In 1904, he moved to Germany and then Italy, where he began to turn his theatrical theories into writings, starting the magazine ‘The Page’.
One of his greatest successes was his involvement with the Moscow Arts Theatre on a revolutionary production of Hamlet, which opened in 1911.
After relocating to Italy, he began publishing the international theatre magazine, ‘The Mask’, as well as establishing a School for the Art of the Theatre at the Arena Goldoni in Florence, and venturing into writing puppet (or marionette) plays. He continued to develop innovatory ideas surrounding the theatre, particularly involving the use of ‘Black Figures’, screens and movements and stage lighting.
Throughout his life, he published numerous works on the theatre, expressing these ideas.
His later life was lived in straitened circumstances in France and was interned by German occupation forces in 1942.
Craig personal life was eventful. In 1893, Craig married Helen Mary (May) Gibson, with whom he had five children: Rosemary Nell (born 1894), Robin or Bobby as he was often known (born 1895), Philip (born 1896?) and Peter (born 1897). The marriage became increasingly strained, with Craig starting an affair with Jess Dorynne, before eloping with violinist Elena Meo in 1902.
Elena was to be a constant support to Craig until her death in 1957 and together they had three children: Ellen Gordon (1903–1904), Ellen Gordon ("Nelly"; 1904–1975) and Edward Anthony Carrick (1905–1998) an art director of British films.
However, he continued to take various lovers, including the dancer Isadora Duncan, with whom he had a daughter, Deirdre Beatrice (1906–1913); and the poet Dorothy Nevile Lees, with whom he had a son, Davidino Lees (1916–2004) a noted Italian photojournalist.
He received an OBE and in 1958, he was made a Companion of Honour. He died at Vence, France, in 1966, aged 94.
Further biographical details about his life and his work are given throughout the catalogue to explain the material held.

Edward Anthony Craig/ Edward Carrick (1905-1998):
Edward Anthony Craig was the son of Edward Gordon Craig and Elena Meo. Often known as ‘Teddy’, he became a notable film and stage designer and artist.
With Edward Gordon Craig absent for much of his childhood, he travelled around with his mother and sister, including a period living in Kent, where they stayed with his grandmother Ellen Terry. He then settled in Rapallo with Gordon Craig, and Teddy became his father’s assistant, becoming an expert model-maker, wood-engraver, printer, and photographer.
In 1923, in order to gain some independence from his father, he adopting a pseudonym, ‘E. Carrick’, for his wood-engravings (‘Carrick’ being the Irish equivalent of the Scottish ‘Craig’) and a name he was also to use throughout his film career.
After being sent to London in 1927, he began working with filmmaker George Pearson and the following year married Helen Ruskin Godfrey, settling in England with her – much to his father’s annoyance – and they had two children, John (b. 1931) and Helen (b. 1934).
Throughout the 1930s he was worked on designing London stage productions, including Macbeth at the Old Vic (1932), Emlyn Williams's psychological thriller Night must Fall (1935), and J. B. Priestley's allegory Johnson over Jordan (1939). In 1937, he founded the first film school in England, the AAT (Associated Artist Technicians') School, as well a writing extensively about design.
He would continue to work on various film designs, working for Criterion Film, the Crown Film Unit, and Pinewood Studios as well as working as a freelance designer and illustrator.
In 1956, he married Patricia Craig, née Marchant, but this marriage collapsed in 1957. He married (Evelyn) Mary Timewell (b. 1922), a film production secretary, in 1960 and they settled Cutler’s Orchard, Bledlow, and then at Southcourt Cottage in Long Crendon, Buckinghamshire.
In 1965, he retired from design to concentrate on writing and research, with his main project, the biography of his father ‘Gordon Craig’, published in 1968.
He died, on 21 January 1998.
