Frederick Wadsworth Loring (December 12, 1848 – November 5, 1871) was an American journalist, novelist and poet.
Loring was born on December 12, 1848, in Boston, Massachusetts to David and Mary Hall Stodder Loring.
He was a fifth great grandson to immigrant Thomas Loring.
He attended Phillips Academy, Andover, Class of 1866, and then Harvard University, where he first made his mark with contributions to the Harvard Advocate.
He graduated in 1870.
Inheriting a love of literature from his mother, who died when he was eleven, he quickly gained in stature as an up-and-coming American author.
In 1871, he published a novel, Two College Friends, and a book of poems, The Boston Dip and Other Verses.
Two College Friends, which featured highly charged scenes of young men in battle during the Civil War, has been singled out as an important work in the history of romantic male friendship.
He also made numerous journalistic and creative contributions to such periodicals as The Atlantic Monthly, Appleton's Journal, Old and New, The Independent, and Every Saturday during this time.
