Margaret Mead, American Anthropologist

Famous American cultural anthropologist, Margaret Mead (1901-1978) dressed in native clothing during her time in Samoa. Mead studied a wide variety of cultures, and linked child rearing practices to social patterns. Mead received her undergraduate degree from Barnard University in 1923 where she studied under Franz Boaz and Ruth Benedict. She acquired a PHD from Columbia University in 1929. At the age of 23, Dr. Mead began a field study in Samoa, against Boaz's advice. From this experience she wrote "Coming Of Age In Samoa", published in 1928. This book remains a best seller. She became curator at the Department of Anthropology at the American Museum of Natural History and was a professor of anthropology at Columbia University. She is quoted as saying: "I have spent most of my life studying the lives of other peoples, faraway peoples, so that Americans might better understand themselves.".
