Samuel Langhorne Clemens, the great American humorist known as Mark Twain, wrote some of his greatest works in Elmira, N. Y. where he was married to an Elmiran, Oliva Langdon, and lived here over 30 years. This octagonal shaped study was built for Mark Twain in 1874 by his sister -in-law, Susan Crane, and moved in 1951 from its original location on the Quarry Farm on East Hill to the Elmira College Campus.
