Biographical/historical note
Ward C. Russell (1907-2000) began his UC Berkeley studies in 1924, at first focusing on Chemistry and Forestry before settling
on Zoology. He was hired by the MVZ in 1929, temporarily filling in for Chester Lamb. Russell ended up serving as the MVZ’s
preparator and collector for forty years. While at MVZ, he spent two weeks on Joseph Grinnell’s final field trip, collected
numerous bird and mammal specimens, and cleaned roughly 80,000 skeletons. Russell brought to the museum the dermestid beetle
approach to cleaning bones, a practice that proved to be quite effective. He primarily focused on collecting birds and mammals
in the western United States and Mexico.
