Biography
John Frederick Povey was born April 5, 1929 in South London. Povey was educated at St. Dunstan's College in London during
the Blitz. After World War II, Povey was employed in a gold mine in South Africa under a plan that allowed him to study at
the University of South Africa in Pretoria, where he completed a B.A. in English (1956) and an M.A. in Teaching English as
a Second Language (1960). In the United States, Povey completed his Ph.D. in Third World Literature in English at Michigan
State University (1964), after which he joined the faculty at UCLA. His areas of research included South African and Nigerian
literature, comparative world literature, language planning and policy, ESL/TESL, and investigating symbols and rituals in
African art. John Povey's career at UCLA was distinguished. He was director of the African Humanities Institute, chair of
the ESL Section of the English Department, chair of the Africa Committee of the UC Education Abroad Program, Associate Director
of the African Studies Center, and Project Director for numerous in-service teacher training programs in the United States
and Africa. He authored eight books and texts, 20 chapters for edited volumes, and more than 100 reviews and articles on African
literature, art, and culture. His field research took him to Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, Kenya, South Africa, Rwanda, Zaire,
Cameroon, Zimbabwe, Somalia, Togo, and Liberia. One of his most signifigant acomplishments at UCLA was his notable editorship
of
African Arts, in which he served from Fall 1967 until his retirement in 1991. His tireless efforts to have all forms of African art included
in the major canon of art history promoted the work of talented African artists globally. He died of cancer on May 3, 1992.
Scope and Content

teaching, research, and administrative activities, including the editorship of the journal
