George Bird Grinnell was an American anthropologist, historian, naturalist, and writer, known for his contributions to the study of Native American cultures and conservation efforts.

Grinnell became a prominent figure in the early conservation movement, advocating for the preservation of wildlife and natural habitats. His work as an ethnographer and historian led to the publication of several influential books and articles, where he documented Native American customs, folklore, and traditions. Grinnell's writings provided valuable insight into the lives of Indigenous peoples, preserving their stories and customs for future generations. He was also instrumental in the founding of the Audubon Society, further solidifying his commitment to conservation.
