This article pays tribute to Everett Cherrington Hughes. The focus is on Hughes the person as opposed to Hughes the scholar. However, for Everett there was no arbitrary separation of the two. The hallmark of his career was his endless curiosity. He never tired of observing, and drew upon sources as diverse as members of his family and peoples around the world. He insisted on analysis grounded in data gathered with an open mind. Although he made numerous contributions to the substantive area of work and occupations, he prided himself on being a generalist; he saw studying occupations as a way of studying society
