This piece doesn't mention it, but it appears (unless I'm mistaken) that Leavitt attended Harvard. At least, among those appointed by the Harvard Board of Overseers in 1903 to two committees to oversee the Lawrence Scientific School as well as the Jefferson Physical Laboratory and Department of Physics was "Erasmus D. Darwin." [1] It seems to me that this gentleman must be the engineer Erasmus Darwin Leavitt, unless someone (more expert than I) has another explanation.
