Biographical history

James Lotz was born in Liverpool, England in 1929. He was awarded a B.A.(Honours) from Manchester University after serving two years in the Royal Air Force. He served as a trader in Nigeria, came to Canada in 1954, and became a Canadian citizen. In 1957, he took an M.Sc. in geography at McGill University and undertook post-graduate work in planning, anthropology and theology.

Between 1955 and 1966, he served with scientific groups in Labrador-Ungava and northern Ellesmere Island. In 1960, he joined the Department of Northern Affairs and National Resources as a community planning officer, and then became a research officer in the department’s Northern Co-ordination and Research Centre. In 1966, James became research director of the Canadian Research Centre for Anthropology at Saint Paul University in Ottawa, where he taught community development and carried out research on unemployed youth, squatters and urban renewal. From 1971-1973, he taught community development at the Coady International Institute at St. Francis Xavier University, and was a freelance writer, association executive and consultant in community economic development.
