  • جون رايت (بالإنجليزية: John Kirtland Wright)‏ (و. 1891 – 1969 م) هو جغرافي، من الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية، ولد في كامبريدج، توفي في هانوفر، عن عمر يناهز 78 عاماً. (ar)
  • John Kirtland Wright (1891–1969) was an American geographer, notable for his cartography, geosophy, and study of the history of geographical thought. He was the son of classical scholar John Henry Wright and novelist Mary Tappan Wright, and the brother of legal scholar and utopian novelist Austin Tappan Wright. He married Katharine McGiffert Jan. 21, 1921 in New York, N.Y. They had three children: Austin McGiffert Wright, Gertrude Huntington McPherson, and Mary Wolcott Toynbee. Having completed a PhD in history at Harvard University, in 1920 Wright was employed as librarian by the American Geographical Society; between the years of 1920 and 1956 he also served as an AGS editor, personal academic contributor, and eventually director. As a result of his prolific academic and professional life, three main themes have emerged in John K. Wright’s published works. These include: the overlapping of academic disciplines (mainly history) with geography, the power of the mind and the supernatural realm in creating subjectivity in geographic research, and the importance of sharing academic knowledge.

Il est le fils de l'érudit classique John Henry Wright et de la romancière Marie Tappan Wright, et le frère du juriste et utopique romancier Austin Tappan Wright. Il a épousé Katharine McGiffert le 21 janvier 1921 à New York et ils ont eu trois enfants, Austin McGiffert Wright, Gertrude Huntington McPherson, et de Marie Wolcott Toynbee. Durant la Première Guerre mondiale, il sert dans l'infanterie, puis dans les services de renseignement de l'armée et enfin à la section géographique et historique du quartier général en France. Après sa démobilisation, et alors qu'il était en train de réaliser son doctorat, Harvard lui offre une bourse pour parcourir l'Europe. Il passera la majorité de ce temps à Paris, où il suivra notamment les cours de Lucien Gallois, Albert Demangeon, Emmanuel de Martonne et Jean Brunhes. Après avoir terminé un doctorat en histoire à l'Université de Harvard, en 1920, Wright a travaillé comme bibliothécaire pour l'American geographical Society entre les années 1920 et 1956, il a également servi l'AGS comme contributeur académique, rédacteur en chef, et finalement directeur. Trois thèmes principaux ont émergé dans la prolifique carrière académique de John K. Wright qui se retrouvent dans les œuvres qu'il a publiées. Elles comprennent: l'interdisciplinarité (principalement de l'histoire) avec la géographie, la puissance de l'esprit et le surnaturel dans la création subjective de la recherche géographique, et l'importance du partage de connaissances académiques.
