Hubbard, Bernard R. (Bernard Rosecrans), 1888-1962

Born in 1888, Bernard Hubbard demonstrated a love of exploration as a youth. He attended St. Ignatius College and Santa Clara University, and entered the Jesuit order in 1908. In 1926 Hubbard returned to Santa Clara as a professor of Greek, German, and geology. He began exploring the Alaskan wilderness in 1927, financing his trips with proceeds from lectures describing his adventures. His exploits were written up in such publications as National Geographic, The Saturday Evening Post, and The Literary Digest. The "Glacier Priest," as Hubbard was called, wrote popular accounts of his travels, and shot numerous photographs and thousands of feet of film, providing a valuable record of Alaska in the 1930s.
