...Carl Van Vechten, 84, critic, novelist, photographer and Manhattan bon vivant, who at the age of 40 gave up a career as New York's style-setting dance and music critic to write seven popular, thinly fictionalized accounts (Nigger Heaven, The Tattooed Countess) of his own Prohibition-era bohemian ways, at 52 launched yet another career as a renowned, and certainly magnanimous, portrait photographer (he gave his work to his subjects free of charge), all the while amassing enough Negro manuscripts and phonograph records from his old uptown haunts to establish the U.S.'s largest collection of Harlem...

The club was originally founded by newspapermen, who later invited the membership of artists, and eventually wealthy art patrons and businessmen.
