释义 |
Mary Beal (1878–1964)[1] was a pioneering botanist who spent most of her life in Daggett, California, living at the ranch of local judge Dix Van Dyke.[2] Though an amateur botanist, she was praised by Willis Linn Jepson for her excellent botanical specimens, and many of these were kept by the University and Jepson Herbaria to this day. She wrote a regular botany column for the Desert Magazine from 1939-1953.[2] Back-issues of this publication are available online today through Desert Magazine.[3] A trail at the Mojave National Preserve commemorates her life and contribution to Mojave Desert botany. Some of her papers are held at the Mojave Desert Heritage and Cultural Association[4] and some of her paintings of Mojave Desert flowers are held at the Mojave River Valley Museum in Barstow, California. Other papers and plant specimens are held at the archives of the University and Jepson Herbaria at the University of California, Berkeley.[5] References1. ^{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=NLj3esAJ_fQC&pg=PA64|title=Calico: Images of America|page=64|first=Paige M.|last=Peyton|publisher=Arcadia Publishing|year=2012|isbn= 9780738589053}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Beal, Mary}}{{botanist-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite news|url=https://www.kcet.org/shows/artbound/mary-beal-botanist-desert-magazine-willis-linn-jepson|title=When Women Seldom Travelled Alone, This Botanist Wandered the CA Deserts in Search of Rare Plants|date=21 September 2016|first=Julia|last=Sizek|work=Artbound|publisher=KCETLink Media Group|accessdate=11 March 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://desertmagazine.com/|title=Desert Magazine|work=desertmagazine.com|accessdate=11 March 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.mdhca.org/|title=Mojave Desert Heritage and Cultural Association - Home|work=mdhca.org|accessdate=11 March 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/archon/?p=collections/controlcard&id=20|title=Mary Beal Papers, 1937-1943|work=University and Jepson Herbaria Archives|publisher=University of California, Berkeley|accessdate=11 March 2017}} 5 : 1878 births|1964 deaths|20th-century American botanists|Place of birth missing|20th-century women scientists |
