Sponsored Blog Post: The Time Traveler’s Wife is set in Chicago, the third largest city in the United States and was filmed in Fall 2007. Chicago’s Newberry Library on West Walton Street is a primary location used in the film, as the employer of lead character Henry deTamble played by Eric Bana. This research library houses a non-circulating collection of rare books, maps, music and manuscripts and was the first public library established on the north side of Chicago in 1887 thanks to a bequest from the estate of Chicago land developer Walter Loomis Newberry. The city of Toronto provided many locations for the film, including Glendon College at York University, Varsity Stadium at the University of Toronto, and Keele subway station. Hamilton and Scugog Township were also additional locations used in filming The Time Traveler’s Wife.
