The Lewis & Clark community is mourning the loss of Stephen Dow Beckham, who passed away on October 10, 2026. Professor emeritus of history and an enduring friend of the college, Beckham was a renowned scholar of American History, a preservationist, and a beloved educator.

Known for his wide-ranging scholarship on Native American history, the Pacific Northwest, and the Lewis and Clark Expedition, Beckham spent 34 years as a faculty member and endowed chair in L&C’s history department until retiring in 2011. Beckham maintained a close connection to the college, authoring books about its historic buildings and grounds, chairing committees, hosting alumni events, and making presentations on the college’s behalf.

We are grateful for the time, wisdom, and generosity Professor Beckham shared with L&C. He will be deeply missed by our community. You can learn more about Professor Beckham's lasting legacy here: https://www.lclark.edu/live/news/58929-lewis-clark-mourns-the-passing-of-professor
