Bronisław Malinowski, the renowned anthropologist, had several influential mentors throughout his academic and professional career. However, if we're talking about his early years as a student, one of his significant mentors was Franz Boas. Boas was a German-American anthropologist often referred to as the "Father of American Anthropology." He had a profound influence on Malinowski's anthropological thinking, particularly in shaping his approach to fieldwork and ethnographic research.
