Leland Livingston Sage was born on April 23, 1899, in Magnolia, Arkansas, United States. He was the son of Jesse A. Sage and Mary C. (Livingston) Sage.
Leland Sage graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in history from Vanderbilt University in 1923 and taught for five years at high schools in Camden, Arkansas, and Taylorville, Illinois.
In 1932 Leland Sage joined the history faculty at Iowa State Teachers College, where he continued to teach until 1982. Although he initially taught various courses in European history, he soon developed a powerful interest in the history of Iowa.
He was widely respected and admired as a model teacher-scholar and produced a legion of students who went on to teach history in numerous high schools, colleges, and universities. His major forte as a teacher was the ability to relate local and state history to a wider context of national and international developments.
Although Leland Sage officially took mandatory retirement in 1967 at the age of 68, he continued to offer courses in Iowa history until 1981 and to direct students in correspondence courses until 1986, making him the campus’s all-time leader in continuous service.
