Poetic Obituaries: [Karl] Kroeber made a name for himself,

and proved just as prolific as his famous family members, by writing extensively on American Indian literature, literary criticism, and art history. His most recent book was "Ishi in Three Centuries," about the last member of the Yahi, a group of Native Americans indigenous to Northern California.

Some of Kroeber's most well-known and beloved classes included his courses on Children's Literature, Native American Studies, and Romantic Poetry.
