Andrew Garrett (linguist)
Andrew James Garrett (born 1961) is a professor of linguistics at the University of California, Berkeley. He specializes in Indo-European languages, and the languages of California, especially Yurok. Garrett received his Ph.D. in linguistics from Harvard University in 1990, with a dissertation titled The Syntax of Anatolian Pronominal Clitics. He is a fellow of the Linguistic Society of America. In collaboration with Leanne Hinton, Garrett has worked on a project to digitize many of the Survey of California and Other Indian Languages records, which are now available through the California Language Archive. A 2015 paper co-authored by Garret was recognized as the Best Linguistics Paper of the Year. Titled "Ancestry-constrained phylogenetic analysis support the Indo-European steppe hypothesis," (co-authored by Will Chang, David Hall, Chundra Cathcart), it elegantly showed that, when methodological errors are corrected, phylogenetic analysis (which had earlier been used to suggest that the steppe hypothesis was untenable), actually supports the time frame necessary for the steppe hypothesis.
