The Center for the Study of the First Americans is looking forward welcoming Dr. Emily Lindsey on October 21. She will be presenting, Fall of the Titans: What became of the world’s Ice Age megafauna and what does it mean for our future, at 3 PM central. There will be a zoom for current CSFA members. Dr. Emily Lindsey is Associate Curator and Excavation Site Director at the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles, California. Dr. Lindsey’s research focuses on the lives and times of Ice Age animals, and on understanding how climate change and human actions intersect to cause extinctions. She has conducted fieldwork across North and South America and Antarctica, holds adjunct faculty appointments at the University of Southern California and UCLA, and serves on the Academic Board of the Institute for Field Research. Dr. Lindsey studied at Brown University, the University of California – Berkeley, and as a Fulbright scholar at the Museo Nacional de Historia Natural in Uruguay, before joining the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County in 2016.
