Person Name: Anon. Author of "I Will Make You Fishers of Men" in The Christian Hymnary. Bks. 1-4 In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Harry D. Clarke

1888 - 1957 Person Name: H. D. C. Author of "Fishers Of Men" in Pinebrook Choruses Orphaned at an early age, Clarke ran away from the orphanage and worked at sea for almost 10 years.

He served as song leader for Harry vom Bruch and Billy Sunday, being so impressed by Sunday that he established the Billy Sunday Memorial Chapel in Sioux City, Iowa (where he served as pastor until 1945).
