Grant W. Sharpe was a leading supporter of interpretation and a well-known environmental author.
Dr. Sharpe wrote about both interpretation[1][2][3] but also forests as renewable resources. With co-authors John C. Hendee and Wenonah F. Sharpe he published Introduction to Forests and Renewable Resources now in its 7th edition (2009).[4]
He was born in 1926 and died in 2006.[5]
To commemorate his work the region 10 of National Association for Interpretation gives an annual Grant W. Sharpe Award to an NAI Region 10 member that has made a major contribution in the field of interpretation or that help legitimize interpretation as a profession following Dr. Sharpe's work.[5]
