Woodbridge Bingham (1901-1986) began his teaching career at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1937, and in 1949 he
founded the Institute of East Asiatic Studies, for which he served as a director until 1957. He became an emeritus professor
in 1969, although he remained active as a Faculty Fellow until 1977. Woodbridge's father, Hiram Bingham (1875-1956), a noted
explorer and politician, discovered the Incan ruins at Macchu Picchu in 1911, and served as a U.S. Senator from Connecticut.
