Bryant received his PhD from the University of California at Berkeley and taught at the University of Michigan. He retired from Michigan and taught at The University of Texas-Pan American before his untimely death during his second semester. The Library acquired his collection of books now known as the Bryant Collection. They are held in Special Collections and may be checked out following the same regulations as other general library books. |
