- Biography
- Mary Howe (1882-1964) was an American composer, pianist, and patron of music in Washington, D.C. Born Mary Carlisle, she studied piano in Germany and the United States and received a degree in composition from the Peabody Conservatory in 1922. As a pianist, she toured in a two-piano team with Anne Hull from 1917-1935. A prolific composer, Howe worked in many genres and often reorchestrated the same composition for multiple settings. She also created many song settings for poems, in addition to her other orchestral work. Howe and her husband, Walter Bruce Howe, were prominent Washington socialites and were among the co-founders in 1931 of the National Symphony Orchestra. Howe was close friends with the orchestra's first music director, Hans Kindler and also had a significant working relationship with the conductor, William Strickland. She was active in numerous local and national organizations, including the National Federation of Music Clubs and she was also a fellow of the MacDowell Colony and the Huntington Hartford Foundation. Towards the end of her life, Howe was on the board of the National Cultural Center (later renamed the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts).
