Alternate Forms Available There are no alternative forms of this collection. Biographical Information Cultural geographer Bernard Q. Nietschmann (1941-2000) was a professor in the Department of Geography at the University of California, Berkeley from 1977 until 2000. He was known for his field work with the Miskito Indians of Nicaragua, and his role advising them during their negotiations for self-determination with the Sandinista government. Nietschmann also established the Maya Mapping Project, using cultural geography to help the Maya in southern Belize produce an atlas that documented their homeland and promoted their rights to land. He published extensive studies on sea turtles in Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and the Torres Strait, documented dangerous beaches and advocated for the safety of divers, and was a spokesperson for the Fourth World Movement. Nietschmann was born in Peoria, Illinois. He attended UCLA, where he received a BA in geography in 1965. He received his MA and Ph.D. in Geography at University of Wisconsin (1968 and 1970), and taught at the University of Michigan before coming to Berkeley in 1977. Nietschmann won teaching awards at both schools. He was a member of the National Geographic Society's Committee for Research and Exploration, a founding member of the board of directors of the Center for World Indigenous Studies, and a Pew Foundation Fellow in conservation and environment. Nietschmann died in Berkeley after a long battle with esophageal cancer.
