| Cultural anthropologist, born in Le Mars, Iowa, USA. He studied at Princeton, Wisconsin, Vienna and Oxford universities, and in 1935 was appointed to the faculty of Harvard, where he remained for the rest of his career. His abiding research interest was in the culture of the Navaho Indians, on which he wrote many studies, most notably Navaho Witchcraft (1944). A major contributor to culture theory, he popularized his views in Mirror for Man (1949). |
