Born and raised on a farm between the communities of Endicott and St. John, Scheuerman has long studied local history and tribes. His book Finding Chief Kamiakin (WSU Press, 2008) is based on extensive interviews with Columbia Plateau tribal elders and original sources related to the military campaigns of Edward Steptoe and George Wright.

Scheuerman has twice been named a Washington Governor’s Author and received the State Excellence in Education Award. After a forty-year career in education, he and his wife, Lois, retired to Richland, where he has recently completed a three-volume work on agrarian themes in art and literature.
