Annie Montague Alexander: Fossils and Field Work
Annie Montague Alexander: Fossils and Field Work
Nevada has been the source of some of the best fossils and fossil hunting in the United States, particularly for those in search of ichthyosaurs, giant aquatic reptiles from the Triassic. One of the earliest collectors to explore these riches was Annie Montague Alexander, a petit, soft-spoken woman with a passion for paleontology specifically and for field work in general. Barbara Stein, author of On Her Own Terms: Annie Montague Alexander and the Rise of Science in the American West, explores Annie Alexander and her contributions to paleontology and vertebrate zoology.
