According to Wikipedia , Emmett Reid Dunn was an American herpetologist and educator noted for his work in Panama and for studies of salamanders in the Eastern United States. Early life and education Emmett Reid Dunn was born on November 21, 1894, in Arlington, Virginia, to Mary Reid Dunn and Emmett Clark Dunn, a civil engineer. He spent much of his childhood at a family farm near the James River in Nelson County. Dunn attended Haverford College in Philadelphia, receiving his B.A. and M.A. in 1915 and 1916, respectively. His childhood connection to Arlington allowed him to connect with his first professional mentor, Leonhard Stejneger, the Curator of Reptiles and Amphibians at the Smithsonian Institution. In 1913, Stejneger suggested that Dunn pursue the study of salamanders. Dunn was also heavily influenced by Henry Sherring Pratt, his professor at Haverford. He would go on to receive his PhD from Harvard University in 1921.
