Biographical Note

  Harold is a well-known professor at Yale University who is best known for his studies of shifting cultivation. He was born in Easton, Pennsylvania and grew up in Patchogue.

He has conducted extensive ethnoecological and linguistic field research in Southeast Asia, especially in the Philippines, and is noted for his pioneering work on indigenous systems of tropical forest and terraced agriculture.

   Professor Conklin received his Ph.D. from Yale in 1955 and joined the faculty in 1962. He served as chair of the Department of Anthropology and director of the Division of Anthropology at the Peabody Museum of Natural History, where he continues as Curator Emeritus.
