Walter Hines Page Fellowship

Walter Hines Page was an American journalist, publisher, and diplomat, serving as United States ambassador to the United Kingdom during World War I. Page founded the State Chronicle, a newspaper in Raleigh, NC, and worked with other leaders to gain legislative approval for what is now known as North Carolina State University. For more than a decade, he was a partner of Doubleday, Page & Company, a major book publisher in New York City.

The Walter Hines Page fellowship, endowed by the Research Triangle Foundation in honor of Page, was awarded annually to humanities scholars from 1985 until 2021 when it was renamed the Research Triangle Foundation fellowship.
