![]() If you could spend a day with anyone, from any era, who would it be and why? I realized too late that was a bad idea-I barely got out of that tiny elevator with all of my fur intact. I thought the nearby elevator would be much faster than two flights of stairs. One evening after the staff and custodians had left the museum, I decided to visit my distant cousins-the two- and three-toed sloths up in Mammal Hall-to chat about some fascinating family history I had come across while doing research on. What’s the biggest risk you’ve ever taken-and did it pay off? Did you know that I am one of the 47 things to do on campus before you graduate? I love being such an icon for the museum and the university. On May 11, 1985, Iowa Hall opened to the public and I officially became part of the Museum of Natural History and the University of Iowa. My most memorable day would be my first day on campus. Take us through one of your most memorable days at the university. It is also fun seeing all the university classes that visit-from biology labs to Elements of Art classes, I am always happy to see UI students in action. It is great to work with aspiring artists, scientists, and authors and watch them grow over the years. The student staff who work at the Museum of Natural History come from so many backgrounds. I get to work with a variety of UI students. What do you enjoy most about working in a higher education setting? I have the best job on campus! I get to warmly greet visitors to Iowa Hall and the Museum of Natural History. ![]()
