Hine, Robert V., 1921-....
Variant namesBiographical notes:
Robert V. Hine is a prominent historian of the American West. Hine earned his Ph.D. in history from Yale University in 1952 and spent a year as a fellow at the Huntington Library in San Marino, California before accepting a faculty position at the University of California, Riverside in 1954. Hine remained a member of the History Department at UC Riverside for most of his long career. A prolific writer, Hine authored numerous historical monographs and edited volumes, several textbooks, two personal memoirs, and two historical novels. In 1971, due to a lifelong eye condition, Hine lost his eyesight; in 1986, after 15 years of blindness, a surgical operation restored it. Hine's memoir Second sight is a reflection on losing his sight, living and working without it, and the experience of regaining it.
