Nathaniel Currier (March 27, 1813-April 20, 1888) was an American lithographer who worked with James Ives and Currier & Ives.
Early years
Currier was born in Roxbury, Massachusetts, to Nathaniel and Hannah Currier. He went to public school until age 15, when he was apprenticed to William and John Pendleton's Boston printing company. The Pendletons were the first commercial lithographers in the United States, with lithography being a new technology in Europe. Currier learned the process in their shop. In 1833, he went to work for M. E. D. Brown in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Currier left New York City in the ensuing year, where he would begin a new venture with John Pendleton. Pendleton has backed out, and Currier & Stodart, the new company, took its name.
Personal life and death
In 1840, Currier married Eliza West Farnsworth. Edward West Currier, the couple's one child, died the next year. Eliza died in 1843. Currier married Lura Ormsbee in 1847.
He served as both a lithographer and a volunteer fireman in New York City in the 1850s.
He was a Unitarian.
Currier was a P.T. acquaintance. Barnum and Bailey are well-known.
Currier was a fan of fast horses. Many at his Massachusetts home were held in a barn he bought but ordered to be dismantled, and then the horse was delivered by horse to his house.
On November 20, 1888, he died eight years after retiring, at his home on Lion's Mouth Road in Amesbury, Massachusetts. He is laid to rest at Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn, New York, on Thursday.
