{"value"=>"<p>Avery Claflin was an American composer. He was born on June 21, 1898 in New Hampshire. Claflin went on to study law and banking, and for 35 years he was employed at the French American Banking Corporation in New York. During this time, he also studied music with A.T. Davison at Harvard. After Word War I, Claflin traveled to France, where he met composers, such as Satie, Auric, Poulenc, and Milhaud, all of who became a great influence for him. He retired at the age of 54 and many of his works are dated around or after this time. He wrote four operas, including <span class=\"title\">Hester Prynne</span> (1929 -1933) and<span class=\"title\"> La Grande Bretéche</span> (1946 - 1948).</p>"}
