From wikipedia:
Henry Demarest Lloyd (May 1, 1847 – September 28, 1903) was a 19th century American progressive political activist and a muckraking journalist. He is best remembered for his exposés of the Standard Oil Company.

Henry Demarest Lloyd was born on May 1, 1847 in the home of his maternal grandfather on Sixth Avenue in New York City. Henry was the first child of Aaron Lloyd, a graduate of Rutgers College and Theological Seminary and minster of the Dutch Reformed Church, and Maria Christie Demarest.

One of Henry Demarest Lloyd's strongest formative influences was the preaching of Henry Ward Beecher, the sermons of whom he regularly attended.
