Ernest Bradlee Watson was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He graduated from Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire, in 1902 and with a PhD from Harvard, Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1913. After a brief stint at instructor and assistant professor of English at Dartmouth College, Watson joined the faculty of Roberts College in Istanbul, being its Dean from 1916-23. During World War I, Watson was with the Red Cross in Paris for a year and a half and served as managing editor of the monthly journal "War Medicine." In 1925, he returned to Dartmouth teaching mainly in the field of drama which had long been an interest of his. He retired from Dartmouth in 1949. Watson was the author of Sheridan to Robertson (1926), a study of the London stage and beginning in 1931, he co-edited the anthology Contemporary Drama.
