Tom Rich, Curator of Vertebrate Palaeontology, Museums Victoria, Melbourne, Australia. A.B. 1964, M.A., 1967, Palaeontology, University of California, Berkeley. Ph.D. 1973, Geology, Columbia University. Citizenship: Australia and United States of America. Married to fellow palaeontologist Prof. Patricia Vickers-Rich AO. Two children, Leaellyn and Timothy.

Together with Patricia Vickers-Rich, received Chairman of the Committee for Research & Exploration of the National Geographic Society Award, 2000.

Professional accomplishments: first to recognise the pseudotribosphenic condition and its significance in mammals in that it defines a major subdivision not previously recognised, found and described the only multituberculates and tribosphenic Mesozoic mammals known from Australia, excavated the first two tunnels to be cut for the sole purpose of recovering fossils, recognised the first features of a non-avian dinosaur adapted specifically for a polar environment.

Qualified mine manager, State of Victoria, Australia. Carried out vertebrate palaeontological fieldwork in North America, Australia, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Argentina, Antarctica, New Zealand and China. Published 12 books and at least 111 scientific papers. 

Qualifications

Ph.D. Geology, Columbia University, 1973

M.A. Palaeontology, University of California, Berkeley, 1967

A.B. Palaeontology, University of California, Berkeley, 1964
