Autorenporträt

Charles William Beebe was an American naturalist, ornithologist, marine biologist, entomologist, explorer, and author. Born on July 29, 1877, in Brooklyn, New York, Beebe developed an early fascination with the natural world, which led him to pursue studies at Columbia University. His career spanned several fields, contributing to a deep understanding of wildlife and ecosystems. Beebe s explorations took him to remote corners of the globe, where he observed and documented diverse species and habitats, often with a particular focus on birds and marine life. His work was influential in the development of modern environmental science, combining meticulous research with vivid storytelling. Beebe's writings, including his memoirs and scientific works, captured the beauty of nature and the significance of conservation. He was married to Blair Niles from 1902 to 1913 and later formed a partnership with Elswyth Thane. Beebe passed away on June 4, 1962, in Trinidad and Tobago at the age of 84. His contributions to natural history and exploration continue to resonate in the field today.
