Anthropologist, Author. Grenville Goodwin studied the Apache indians, lived on the reservation in the 1930s, wrote Myths and Tales of the White Mountain Apache, and left many unpublished papers. His landmark work The Social Organization of the Western Apache was published posthumously. His son Neil, who never knew his father, published Like a Brother: Grenville Goodwin's Apache Years, 1928-1939 which retraced his father's steps and included some of his father's letters and diary entries, his mother's diary entries, art and poetry, and his own revelations. Grenville Goodwin's life was cut short by a brain tumor, and his single grave site is located south of the Tanque Verde Cemetery.
