Edmund Isham (academic administrator)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Edmund Isham D.D. (1744?–1817) was an academic administrator at the University of Oxford.

Isham was elected Warden (head) of All Souls College, Oxford in 1793, a post he held until his death in 1817.[1] While Warden at All Souls College, Isham was also Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University from 1797 until 1798.[2][3]

A portrait of Isham was painted by William Owen (1769–1825) and a mezzotint engraving was produced by Samuel William Reynolds (1773–1835) in 1810.[4]
