#20

Alexander Haggerty Krappe (6 July 1894 – 30 November 1947) was a folklorist and author.
Along with Francis Peabody Magoun, he was the first translator of folktales collected by the Brothers Grimm into the English language.
He was also a linguist, teacher, translator of scientific and other materials, a Roman philologist, a comparative mythologist, a classicist and Scandinavianist. Despite his contributions and academic writing, his work has been overlooked in the modern Folklore discipline as he staunchly denied the existence of American Folklore.
