Josh Buck

Josh Buck was born in Arcata and has lived in Humboldt County his whole life. He graduated from Humboldt State University and received his BA in History in 2018. His area of historical focus was the Northwestern Pacific Railroad and the predecessor railroads of Humboldt and Mendocino counties. In addition, he graduated from Cal. Poly Humboldt’s Teacher Credential Program this year. 

Josh interned for both the Humboldt County Historical Society and the Blue Lake Museum in 2018. He was hired by the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History to create a lesson plan for local teachers in 2019. As well as being a board member for the Timber Heritage Association since 2019 and their secretary since January 2022. On any given weekend, you can find Josh and his wife Maya exploring seldom-visited local historical sites. 
​
He thanks the Clarke Museum’s staff, board members, and most of all the museum’s supporters for this opportunity. He also would like to provide a special thank you to his friend and colleague Katie Buesch and wishes her the best in all her future endeavors.
