Guy W. Currier

Guy W. Currier (December 22, 1867 - ?) was a lawyer and politician in Massachusetts.[1][2][3] He served in both houses of the Massachusetts legislature (Massachusetts General Court). [1]

Currier married actress Marie Burress in 1894.[4][5] She was part of the Boston Museum Stock Company.[6] As Mrs. Guy Currier, she established Four Wind Farm, later known as Marianden, an outdoor theater and theater training program.[7]

An ally of Calvin Coolidge, Currier had social distinction, wealth, personal charm and broad circle of friends which Coolidge lacked, and which would have a lasting impact on his political career.[8] He was a Democrat.[9]

His son, also named Guy Currier (died 1958), graduated from Yale University and Cambridge University.[10]
