Louis Snyder was a native of Annapolis, Maryland, and graduated from that city's St. John's College, cum laude, in 1928. He became a German-American Exchange Fellow in 1928 at the University of Frankfurt am Main, where he earned his doctorate in 1931. He was also an Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Fellow in 1929–1930. Following post-doctoral work at Columbia University, he started tutoring at City College of New York in 1933.[2]

Snyder was appointed a full professor at City College in 1953 and retired to Princeton, New Jersey in 1977 after a total of forty-four years of teaching. He was the general editor of the David Van Nostrand Company's Anvil Books.[3] He died in Princeton in 1993.[2]
