Biographical Note:

Herbert F. Lionberger was born in Middletown, Missouri, in 1912 and died on July 22, 2000. In 1931, he graduated as Valedictorian from the Middletown High School. He received his BS, with Majors in both Social Science and Education, from Northwestern Missouri State College in 1936. In 1941, he received his ME in Educational Guidance from the University of Missouri-Columbia and, in 1950, was awarded his Ph.D. in Rural Sociology, also from the University of Missouri-Columbia.

Professor Lionberger's career as an educator began with work as a teacher in one-room rural schools during the depression years of the 1930s. In the late thirties, he taught at the Curryville, Missouri, High School. During 1941 and 1942, while earning his ME, Lionberger worked as a graduate teaching assistant in the Department of Rural Sociology at the University of Missouri-Columbia. Lionberger was employed as an Immigrant Inspector and District Administrator for the United States Department of Justice's Immigration and Naturalization Service between 1942 and 1946. In 1946, he returned to UMC's Department of Rural Sociology to work as an Assistant Professor and, beginning in 1954, as an Associate Professor. He became a full Professor in 1958, and was granted Professor Emeritus status in 1982.

In addition to his teaching duties, Professor Lionberger served on a number of departmental and university committees. As a consultant on communication research, he worked with the Ford Foundation, the government of India, and the Agricultural Relations Division of the Tennessee Valley Authority. His writings have been widely published and he has contributed scholarly papers to numerous national and international conferences.
