John Howard Stevens (1879–1958) was born February 23, 1879 in Portland. In 1898 he joined his father's office as a drafter, and became his partner in 1905. Their firm, John Calvin Stevens–John Howard Stevens, lasted until the death of John Calvin Stevens in 1940. In 1941 he formed a partnership with his own son, John Calvin Stevens II, in a firm known as John Howard Stevens–John Calvin Stevens 2nd. The younger Stevens had been a drafter in the firm since 1934. In 1953 they merged with the firm of James C. Saunders & Associates, with the combined firm becoming known as Stevens & Saunders.[1]
