Abstract:
This article memorializes William C. Howell (1932-2012). Bill had several careers in psychology. He made important academic and research contributions while at Ohio State University (1957-1968) and Rice University (1968-1989), he was chief research scientist at the U.S. Air Force Human Resources Laboratory (1989-1992), and he was executive director of the Science Directorate at the American Psychological Association (APA; 1992-1998). In 2012, he received the Raymond D. Fowler Award for Outstanding Contributions to APA, presented posthumously at the annual APA Convention. In all his roles, Bill made a strong and lasting connection with people. He sought always to leave things better than when he arrived.
