Gordon accepted and used the Adventure column to collect information on traditional American music from the magazine's readers. Gordon was the founding head of the Archive of American Folk Song (later the Archive of Folk Culture, which became part of the American Folklife Center) at the Library of Congress in 1928. He was a pioneer in using mechanical means to document folk musicians, originally using Edison cylinder recordings. He is known among folk singers as the originator of the Gordon "Inferno" Collection of American songs; he also collected an early version of Kumbaya. From 1943 to 1958, Gordon was a Professor of English at George Washington University. He died March 26, 1961. (en)
