Biographical History
Professor of History, Washington State University.
Leroy Freeman Jackson, born July 15, 1881, in London, Ontario, Canada, moved with his family to North Dakota in the early 1890s. Jackson received his bachelors degree from the University of North Dakota and his masters degree from the University of Chicago. In 1912 he went to Harvard for a year to conduct research under Frederick Jackson Turner. After several years of holding teaching positions throughout North Dakota, Minnesota, and Washington, Jackson moved to Burnsville, NC to become director of the Stanley McCormick School (which later became the Carolina New College), an experimental progressive education school funded by Nettie Fowler McCormick. In 1932 Jackson began working for the U.S. Indian Service and was sent to Wrangell, Alaska to become director of the Wrangell Institute. In 1934 Jackson was sent to New Mexico to work with the Navajo at the Charles H. Burke School in Fort Wingate, and the Taos Day School in Taos. Jackson was also the author of several published articles, monographs, and children's books of nursery rhymes. He died in Pomona, California in 1958.
