Gordon Grant Oral History Interview 1

Gordon Grant traded in a career as a western river guide for fluvial geomorphology researcher. He completed his PhD at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, but did his dissertation work in the Andrews and French Pete Creek under the advisorship of Hopkins professor and fluvial geomorphology guru “Reds” Wolman. He made his way into a Forest Service research position and studied topics such as channel form at multiple scales, sediment transport, cumulative watershed effects of forest practices, and geologic effects on streamflow.
