Martin Bernard Dickson (22 March 1924 – 14 May 1991) was a professor of Near Eastern studies at Princeton University and an historian of Iran and Central Asia, who specialized in Safavid History. His magnum opus, Houghton Shahnameh (2 vols., Cambridge, Mass. 1981), represented a 20-year long cooperation with art historian Stuart Cary Welch, was described as "[A work which] not only delineate the Turkman and Timurid sources of the Safavid idiom, but also try to recapture the personalities of the artists responding to the actors and themes of the stories they painted". Dickson tutored many accomplished specialists of Medieval Iran, such as John E.Woods, Robert D. McChesney and Wheeler Thackston (Harvard).
