Charles Doolittle Walcott

    Ako paleontológ sa Charles Doolittle Walcott preslávil objavom skamenelín z Burgess Shale v Kanade na začiatku dvadsiateho storočia. Napriek svojmu prevažne samovzdelanému vzdelaniu sa Walcott po práci pre New York State Museum a US Geological Survey (USGS) vypracoval na riaditeľa USGS. Venoval sa tiež vedeckej a vládnej politike a hral kľúčovú úlohu v americkej vede. Jeho objav významne prispel k pochopeniu raného života na Zemi.
