James Pilling
James Constantine Pilling (born 16 November 1846 in Washington, D.C.; died 26 July 1895) was a Congressional stenographer-transcriptionist and a pioneering ethnologist chiefly known for compiling a series of extensive bibliographies of the cultures, mythologies and languages of the North and Central American aboriginal peoples. Beginning in 1875, when he joined the survey of the American West led by Maj. John Wesley Powell, and continuing through 1881, Pilling did extensive fieldwork and proofread Powell's ''Report on the lands of the arid region of the United States'' (1879).〔J. W. Powell, ''Report on the lands of the arid region of the United States, with a more detailed account of the lands of Utah,'' 2nd ed., U.S. Government Printing Office, 1879, 195 pp. (p. 9)〕
==Education and early work==
Pilling attended Gonzaga College, at the time chartered by Congress to offer university degrees but today a Jesuit high school. Having taught himself Pitman shorthand while still in grade school, he became highly proficient as a stenographer, later working for several government agencies.
