Answer 1

George B. Cressey

Explanation:

George B. Cressey, an American geographer, is known for the statement "Asia has many places where people are few and few places where people are very many." This reflects the uneven distribution of population in Asia, with sparsely populated areas such as deserts, mountains, and plateaus, and densely populated regions like river valleys and fertile plains.
