Meet The Author

Take a step back in time on June 20th at 6:30 p.m., when you meet author Hugh Grinnell at Cody Library Grizzly Hall. Mr. Hugh Grinnell, distant cousin of George Bird Grinnell, will present a 45-minute first-person presentation where he will impersonate his cousin both in costume and by describing his adventures using daily field journals, published articles, and correspondence from 1885-1927. Hugh Grinnell’s book, The Father of Glacier National Park derives its authenticity from these sources and some of Bird’s editorials over 35 years as editor of Forest and Stream sportsmen’s journal.
