SUBJECT (S) : Seminaries. Jewish Theological Seminary of America. Adler, was a (1863-1940) , U. S. Jewish scholar and public worker. Adler was born in Van Buren, Arkansas, son of a cotton planter. In 1867, upon his father's death, Adler and his family moved to Philadelphia, where they lived with Mrs. Adler's brother, David Sulzberger. They were members of the Sephardi Congregation Mikveh Israel, and its atmosphere, together with the influence of Adler's uncle and his cousin, Mayer Sulzberger , did much to shape Cyrus Adler's religious traditionalism and devotion to scholarship. Graduating from the University of Pennsylvania in 1883, Adler thereafter studied Assyriology under Paul Haupt at Johns Hopkins University. He taught Semitics at the university, becoming assistant professor in 1890. Meanwhile, he had joined the Smithsonian Institution, and became librarian there in 1892. Two years before, he had been sent to the Orient as special commissioner of the Columbian Exposition. Adler took part in the founding of the Jewish Publication Society of America (1888) , serving as chairman of its various committees throughout his life. He was responsible for the establishment of the Society's Hebrew press. Adler was also a founder of the American Jewish Historical Society (1892) , and its president for more than 20 years. He edited the first seven volumes of the American Jewish Yearbook (1899-1905; the last two vols. With H. Szold) and was a departmental editor of The Jewish Encyclopedia (1901-06) .
