There, I realized the form of continuum inherent in all of life. This connection between art and science became the direction of my work. Tradition- ally, the artist has been the interpreter of science and anatomy, whether from Vesalius during the Renaissance or with drawings and photographs one can find in modern textbooks today. In my career as a scientific artist, I have used my artistic skills to illustrate, through drawings and sculptures, the body structures of insects, animals, and sea creatures of many kinds, and ultimately, the ethnographic sculptures of peoples. These applied art forms have been my lifelong love and quest. I have spent countless hours and years in this study and pursuit. MyartandsciencejourneyledmetomeetandstudywithBettyPatGatliffandmany other well-respected scientists and artists. The world of forensic art, in my estimation, requires one of two thingsdlaw enforcement training or an academic degree. So to thatend,Ireturnedtoschoolattheageof52toearnamaster’sdegreeinanthropology. Duringmystudies,Iwasdrawntospend12yearsteachingdissectionofthehumanbody to students in the San Francisco State University Anatomy Lab who planned to enter healthcare fields. It was there that my passions for structure, art, and science came together. In that world of academia and medicine, I found a sanctuary. IwasaskedtowritethisbookbyElizabethBrownoftheElsevierpublishingcompany severalyearsago.AtfirstIsaid,“No,Icouldn’tpossiblywriteabook.”Thatwasbecause myjobentailedlecturingaswellasmanagingandcoordinatingthehumancadaverlabfor more than 300 students each year. Our lab had a staff of 12 assistants and graduate students. It was a pleasure but quite overwhelming. Elizabeth asked if she could call me again in 6 months. When I learned that John Thornton had recommended me, I knew then that I had to say yes. This book is dedicated to John, a sincere and respected forensic scientist and colleague, as well as his equine rescue friend, Brio. It has been a long journey not only for the book but for me as well. My work as a scientific artist started with scientific illustration in college and moved on to include scientific sculpture for many well-known museums and cultural centers. My extensive career has taken me to the bottom of the ocean in Maine with Smithsonian scientists, to dances and celebrations of the White Mountain Apaches, to powwows with Plains Indian tribes, and to a native Northwest Suquamish potlatch.
