What was the occupation of William shakespeare's father?

[Edit]

Shakespeare's father, like many men of his time, was involved in a number of businesses. Some documents refer to him as glove maker, but he is also described as a whittawer (a man who prepared a particular kind of leather) and a yeoman. He is also known to have been involved in wool-dealing.
