Professor Scriven had an eclectic career that ranged widely in both topics and institutions. He wrote well-known papers on the philosophy of scientific explanation (including famous counter-examples to Hempel's covering law model of explanation), and later became a prominent figure in philosophy of education with his work on "evaluation." He taught during his long career at Berkeley, Indiana/Bloomington, Western Michigan University, Western Australia, and finally at the Claremont Graduate School, where he was emeritus. The CGS memorial notice is here and from the American Educational Research Association here. Comments are open for remembrances from those who knew Professor Scriven, or for those who would like to comment on the significance of his work.
ADDENDUM: There's a charming anecdote about meeting Scriven from Bas van Fraassen here.
