Emily Post, the author of etiquette standards used across the U.S. today, would have turned 142 years old on Oct. 27. While some are outdated, most of her rules of behavior are still regarded as the gold standard of decorum. She was born in 1872, and died Sept. 25, 1960, at age 87. She published her first book on etiquette in 1922.
