Theodora Kroeber

Theodora Kracaw Kroeber (1897-1979) was a writer and anthropologist best known for her interpretations of the oral traditions of several native Californian cultures.

Kroeber was born in Colorado and later moved to California where she studied at the University of California, Berkeley. In 1919 she earned her masters degree in clincal psychology and later married Alfred Kroeber, who turned her interests to anthropology, where her name would later become known, particularly for their joint work with Ishi, the last member of the Yahi tribe of California.
