Mary Wheeler

Center for Columbia River History Program Manager,
Washington State University Vancouver

Working with the Center for Columbia River History allows me to combine my interests in history and education with my commitment to making scholarly research relevant and accessible to communities beyond the academy. I am interested in facilitating creative and inclusive ways of learning history.

As someone with deep roots in Oregon and Washington, I am delighted to be back in the Pacific Northwest and draw strength and inspiration from its communities, people and landscape. This picture is really old, by the way.
