Biographical Note
Henry Greenwood Bugbee, Jr. was born in February of 1915 to Dr. Henry G. Bugbee and Mrs. Della S. Bugbee in New York City. He had two siblings: Dorothy and Eleanor. Bugbee received his B.A. in philosophy from Princeton University in 1936, submitting "In Demonstration of the Spirit" as an honors thesis before beginning graduate studies at the University of California, Berkeley. Bugbee's time at Berkeley was interrupted by service in the US Navy where he earned the rank of Lieutenant and engaged in minesweeping, patrol and escort duty on ships in the Pacific. Following his service, Bugbee returned to his graduate studies at Berkeley, completing his PhD in 1946 under Dr. Jacob Loewenberg. After completing his education, Bugbee's teaching career took him to the University of Nevada at Reno, Stanford, Harvard, Chatham College, Penn State, and the University of Montana where he taught, with some interludes, from 1957 through his official retirement in 1977. At the University of Montana, Bugbee quickly became the chair of the philosophy department and was instrumental in building the program and creating and maintaining an intensive humanities program.
Best known for his book The Inward Morning: A Philosophical Exploration in Journal Form, Bugbee's work explores concepts of wilderness, art, human experience, and place. His other major publications include essays on the Book of Job, wilderness, Gabriel Marcel, the sublime, love, and education. Albert Borgmann, Bugbee's friend and colleague writes: "A major source of Bugbee's inspiration was the great literature of the West and the East. A humanist par excellence, he lived with and out of those texts, and through his example he made humanists out of many who were neither so trained nor inclined."
Bugbee had five children and two step-children. With his first wife, Jeanie Abbot, he had Ann, Joan and Bruce. With his second wife, Daphne Bugbee Jones, he had Barbara and Taj. Bugbee married Marlene Zentz in 1977. He married Sally Moore in 1982, and had step-children Jonathan and Megan. Henry Bugbee had a stroke and experienced dementia in the last years of his life. He passed away on December 18, 1999.

After leaving Harvard and publishing The Inward Morning, Bugbee made his way to the University of Montana where he taught courses on ethics, the philosophy of religion, eastern philosophy, and other upper-division courses.
