Steven N. Sheldon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Steven N. Sheldon is currently the Executive Director of International Administration of SIL International.
He is known to the linguistics community for his field work and documentation of the Pirahã language. His 1988 paper on the Pirahã verb system is still the basic (if not the only) reference on that subject.
