Hide Profile

David C. K. McClelland (1947 February 11 - 1976 September 8) attended Harvard College with the Class of 1969. His family was from Rochester, Michigan. While at Harvard he was a member of Lowell House and joined the Harvard Lampoon in his freshman year as a cartoonist, eventually becoming the president. One of his best-known Lampoon covers was his parody of the Bayeaux Tapestry, portraying Harvard's victory over Yale in the Harvard-Yale football game; he also drew the "Boggie" cartoons. During the summer of 1968, he went on a trip to a Welsh colony in Patagonia where he collected field recordings with Paul David Lagomarsio. McClelland also produced beautifully illuminated calligraphic manuscripts, many of which several examples are in the collection of Houghton's Department of Printing and Graphic Arts.
