There is probably a no more ret.
icent and unsophisticated person il
Washington than William s. Corby
Personal publicity is abhorrent to
him and consequently this Who's
Who" may develop a dire result. but
he is too interesting a man to pass
by.
1t seems that the Corbys have
long been identified with the bakery
business. Forty-two years ago. at
the age OF 13. william S. drove the
first bakery delivery wagon for his
father on the streets OF Cortland, N
Y. where he was born. At the same
time he attended the normal schools
of the town.
In 1890 Mr.. Corby came to the Ma
tional Capital on a visit. saw an op-
portunity to establish a quality
bakery and accordingly opened a
small business at $50 Twelfth street
northwest.
At first he retailed bread and
cakes, later establishing the first
four wholesale routes by personal
solicitation. His brothers Joined
him in the business in 1891.
From that small beginning the
Corby bakery has grown into the
present organization.
Mr.. Corby is a member of Calvary
Baptist Church. is a thirty-second
degree Mason. and belongs to the
Columbia Country Club. the Com
mercial Club. the Board of Trade
the Merchants and Manufacturers
Association and the Washington
Chamber of Commerce. of which he
is a trustee.
He is a trustee Of the American
University and a director of the
American Security and Trust Com
pany and the Security Storage Com
pany.
