PRESENTER: Dr. Dwight Chasar, Retired, Industrial Research Chemist
DESCRIPTION: Purportedly there are nearly 70-80 million people in North America who watch birds. One would guess that at least a few of these people are (or have been) more famous for accomplishments in their chosen fields other than for their bird watching hobbies. So who are they? From political and sports figures to actors, music composers, and Nobel prize winners, this presentation looks at some of these famous people, with some surprising and interesting facts thrown in, and the impact that their bird watching has or had on their careers and private lives. Dr. Chasar will also try to identify birds that these people favored in their hobby.
