Teaming up with TrowelBlazers

I recently came across this new effort to showcase female researchers in throughout history in archaeology, palaeontology, and geology: TrowelBlazers! Today, they were good enough to post an entry I wrote about Marie Tharp, a geologist and drafter who, with Bruce Hazeen, compiled ocean sounding data into the first maps of the ocean floor.  Writing for TrowelBlazers was really fun, as was learning about Marie’s life and work – now if only I could find some free time to do it again!
