Timeline

1925

Grover Cleveland Stephens, Jr. (January 12, 1925 – June 17, 2003), was an American marine biologist and comparative physiologist at the University of Minnesota and the University of California, Irvine.

Stephens was born 12 Jan 1925 in Oak Park, Illinois to Grover C. and Celene Madeleine (Seibert) Stephens, and grew up in Cicero, Illinois, attending J. Sterling Morton High School East.

1943

He entered military service on 13 Nov 1943 and trained at the Great Lakes Naval Station.

1945

After one year of engineering training at Purdue University and Princeton University, he was commissioned as an ensign in the U.S. Navy in the spring of 1945 and assigned as a gunnery officer on the USS Philippine Sea, which was commissioned after VJ-Day.

1946

He was released from active duty in the Navy in 1946, and after completing his remaining college course work, graduated from Northwestern University with a B.A. in mathematics in 1948.

1949

He earned an M.A. in philosophy at Northwestern University in 1949, and after working in the laboratory of Frank A. Brown at Northwestern University and the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) at Woods Hole, Massachusetts during the summers, he earned his Ph.D. in physiology in 1952.

Stephens was first married in 14 Jan 1949 to biologist Gwen Maxine Jones (1919–1991) and they had three sons: physicist Peter Wesley Stephens (1951- ) a professor of physics at SUNY Stony Brook, John D. Stephens (1957-), and Joseph Henry Stephens (1960–1992).

1952

Stephens began his academic career teaching at Brooklyn College (1952–53), after which he joined the faculty of the University of Minnesota (UM) in September 1953.

During his eleven years at UM, most of his research was done at MBL, where he worked on the daily rhythms of color change of fiddler crabs.

1957

Some of his most important work during this time period was his 1957 discovery, along with Robert A. Schinske, of the ability of soft-bodied marine invertebrates to take up amino acids and other small-organic molecules directly from seawater.

This discovery was important in broadening our understanding of how many marine invertebrates feed and how energy and nutrients flow through marine ecosystems.

1964

In 1964, Stephens joined the faculty of the University of California at Irvine (UCI) as the founding chairman of the Department of Organismic Biology.

While at UCI, he spent his career refining and expanding his findings of amino acid uptake by invertebrates, conclusively showing that bacteria were not involved in the process, and that the process was a significant supplementary source of nutrition for many animals.

1977

Stephens married Ann C. Doyle on 11 June 1977, and they resided in Newport Beach, California until his death in 2003.

1982

He served as the fourth dean of the College of Biological Sciences at UCI from 1982 to 1986 succeeding Howard A. Schneiderman.

A man of varied talents, he was a good athlete and proficient amateur pianist occasionally performing as an accompanist for vocal artists at the university.

2003

Stephens retired from the university in 1991, but continued to be an active participant in campus activities until his death on 17 June 2003.

He was buried at Pacific View Memorial Park in Corona del Mar, California.
