PROFESSOR WARREN D. BAKER
Arizona, The Youngest State, 1913, pg 602

Professor Warren D. Baker, who since 1908 has served as 
superintendent of the Prescott public schools, winning 
for himself a place among the leading educators of the state, 
was born in Michigan in 1870 and there acquired his preliminary 
education.  He afterward entered the University of Michigan and 
was graduated with the degree of A.B. in 1893 and with the 
degree of A.M. in the following year. Subsequently he did 
special work in pedagogy in the Leland Stanford University, 
where he was a student from 1900 to 1901.

In the latter year Mr. Baker removed to Prescott and gave 
his attention to business pursuits until 1908, when he was 
appointed to his present position.  For two years previous 
to that time he had served as a member of the school board, 
accomplishing in that position capable and useful work.  As 
superintendent of schools Professor Baker has inaugurated a 
number of changes and improvements and his work has received 
the commendation of the local public and the school board. 
His methods are practical and progressive.

On the 26th of June, 1906, Mr. Baker was united in marriage 
to Miss Corinne E. Smith, a native of Ohio and a graduate of 
Leland Stanford University.  Previous to her marriage she was 
a teacher in the high school of Prescott.  Mr. and Mrs. Baker 
have one child, Harriet Eleanor.
