Charles Cleland was born and raised in Kane, Pennsylvania. After earning an undergraduate degree in biology at Denison University and a master's degree in zoology at the University of Arkansas, Cleland entered the University of Michigan to study anthropology and archaeology, where he received a master's degree and PhD in these subjects. After graduation, he began a thirty-six-year career of teaching and research at Michigan State University. During this period, Cleland published over ninety scholarly articles and five books, which were focused on the culture and history of the native people of the upper Great Lakes region. In 1978, Michigan State University named Dr. Cleland Distinguished Professor of Anthropology. Cleland also supported his professional organizations and served as president of both the Society of Professional Archaeologists and the Society of Historical Archaeology. In 2002, the latter organization awarded him its highest honor, the JC Harrington Medal, for his contributions to the field. Besides his teaching and research duties, Dr. Cleland also provided expert testimony in many federal court cases on behalf of Great Lakes Indian tribes, which were suing for the recognition of their rights under nineteenth-century treaties with the United States. Cleland retired in 2000 and now lives with his wife, Nancy, in Northern Michigan, where he remains active in research and writing.
