William Curtis Sturtevant (1926 Morristown, New Jersey – March 2, 2007) was an anthropologist and ethnologist.〔("William C. Sturtevant; Expert on Indians" ), ''The Washington Post'', Louie Estrada, March 17, 2007〕 He is best known as the general editor of the 20-volume ''Handbook of North American Indians''. Renowned anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss described the work as "an absolutely indispensable tool that should be found on the shelves of all libraries, public and private alike."
Sturtevant's career focused on Native American languages and cultures. He was particularly known for his work on the history and culture of the Florida Seminole. During his career, he served as the president for the (American Society for Ethnohistory ), the American Ethnological Society, and the American Anthropological Association.
