George Vid Tomashevich (Vocin, Kingdom of Yugoslavia, 3 March 1927 – Berkeley, California, 3 December 2009) was an eminent Serbian poet, writer and professor of anthropology in the United States of America.
Tomashevich belonged to a distinguished Serbian family in Slavonia which had taken refuge in Belgrade from the World War II persecution of Serbs in Croatia.
He was a liberal-minded man, both in politics and religion, and an enthusiastic supporter of popular education.
He took interest in the struggle of the Serbs for independence and strongly favoured the establishment of a democratic monarchy (along British lines) which came about in 2002 when Crown Prince Alexander Karageogević decided to return home to his ancestral roots.
[1] As a scholar and poet, he wrote movingly on universal human topics, as well as on achievements of Serbian art, history and culture.
