Hugh C. Brooks (June 19, 1922 - October 8, 2008) was an American geographer, author, educator, and historian who specialized in the history and political economy of Africa.
==Life and career==
Hugh Campbell Brooks was born in Seattle, Washington, on June 19, 1922. He served in the U.S. Army (1941-1946), where he was a member of Regimental HQ Company, 310th Infantry, 78th Division, and received the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, and Silver Star for his service in the European Theater.〔"Hugh C. Brooks," ''Contemporary Authors Online''; ("PFC Hugh C Brooks," ''Find A Grave'' website ).〕 He attended the University of Washington in Seattle, where he received the B.A. in 1947, and also studied at the University of Geneva in 1948. Brooks began teaching Geography at Oregon State University in Corvallis (1950-1951), and then taught at Teachers College, Columbia University, where he received the M.A. (1952) and Ed.D. (1954). His dissertation topic was "Directed Studies in Introductory College Geography." He also taught at Hunter College, 1952-1954.〔"Hugh C. Brooks," ''Contemporary Authors Online''.〕
A Fulbright award enabled Brooks to lecture at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa from 1955-1957, before he began teaching at Newark State College as an Associate Professor of Geography, 1957-1961. Brooks then joined the faculty of St. John's University in 1961 as Associate Professor of Geography and Director of their Center for African Studies. When the African Center was discontinued, Brooks was made a member of the History Department, where he remained until his retirement, and was the Department Chair in the 1980s.〔"Hugh C. Brooks," ''Contemporary Authors Online''.〕
Brooks' first wife, Savina Vicini, died in 1994. They had two children, Robert and Alison. (Robert "Bobby" Brooks was an entertainment agent who died in the same helicopter crash with Stevie Ray Vaughan.)〔("Bobby Brooks Service to Be Held Thursday," ) ''Los Angeles Times,'' Aug. 29, 1990.〕 Brooks then married Beatrice Shelley and lived in Pembroke Pines, Florida, until his death in 2008.〔"Hugh C.
