Colonel James D. Stevenson (1840–1888) was an executive officer of the U.S. Geological Survey and a self-taught geologist, naturalist and anthropologist. His geological surveys included Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming and Utah. Stevenson Island in Wyoming was named after him as a result of his assistance to Dr. Ferdinand Vandeveer Hayden in the Hayden Geological Survey of 1871.

Stevenson's wife was the American ethnologist Matilda Coxe Stevenson (1849-1915, m. 1872). She helped James prepare reports, analyses, and catalogs of the collection that were later published in the Bureau of Ethnology Annual Reports, as James disliked writing reports and was described as lacking the creative mind and discipline needed for writing. Together, the Stevensons formed the first husband-wife team in anthropology.
James Stevenson died due to Rocky Mountain fever. At the time of his death, the couple had been preparing an ethnography of the Sia people.
