Biography

I really have very little personal information on Beardslee. According to my one source, he "... moved to Asheville, North Carolina from his native state of Ohio in 1901" and began to explore the fungi of western North Carolina. A cooperative guy, he co-published several works with Coker, and did a lot of work in Florida with Burlingham after they both retired there.
