BiographyHally Jolivette received her A.B. in 1906 and her A.M. in 1909 — both from the University of Wisconsin — and her Ph.D. from Stanford University in 1912. She taught at the University of Wisconsin (1907–10), Stanford (1910–12), and Washington State College (1912–14). While at the latter institution, she met and in 1915 married the botanist Karl Sax, one of her cytology students. They later had three sons. She worked for a year for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (1914–15) before taking up a position as an instructor of botany in 1916 at Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts. It appears that she taught there at least five years. She often collaborated with Karl on chromosomal studies, especially those related to the effects of radiation and chemicals on chromosomal structure. Publications
HonorsIn 1966, she and Karl were co-recipients of the Mary Soper Pope Memorial Award in botany. Karl crossed the Japanese cherry Prunus subhirtella with Prunus apetela and named the resulting hybrid Prunus x 'Hally Jolivette' in her honor.
