		Gilbert Seldes -- critic, editor, novelist, playwright, screenwriter -- was the first American intellectual to lend legitimacy to popular culture; yet too few Americans recognize his name or appreciate his influence, according to Michael Kammen, a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian at Cornell University.
		Gilbert Seldes began his career as an unabashed member of the cultural elite, Kammen writes.
		Seldes became the nation's most ardent "cultural democrat," championing Charlie Chaplin, Al Jolson, Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, the Ziegfeld Follies and George Herriman's comic strip "Krazy Kat" in columns for emerging "middlebrow" publications like The Saturday Evening Post, The New Yorker, Vanity Fair and Esquire.
