Schweitzer Klassifikation
Curtis Tomak has graduate degrees in anthropology (majoring in American Indian archaeology) from Indiana University. He has been a professional archaeologist in Indiana for over 50 years, and has taught at Indiana University, was the Curator of Collections at the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology at Indiana University, and was the principal archaeologist for the Indiana Department of Transportation for more than 30 years. His academic interests are archaeology and history, and he is a published author of research papers.
Tomak moved to Martinsville over 40 years ago and became interested in local history. One result of his research was the writing of a major article about John Wooden which was published by the Indiana Historical Society in 2012. That article includes a great amount of new information pertaining to Wooden that had not been published before (Tomak, Stuttgen, and Tomak 2012). Subsequently, another article of his about Wooden was published by the Indiana High School Basketball Historical Society (Tomak 2015). In addition, he coauthored a book about Morgan County history as illustrated by postcards (Stuttgen and Tomak 2007) and coauthored another such book devoted to Martinsville (Stuttgen and Tomak 2008).
