Why Is Tom Rich Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Thomas Rich , generally known as Tom Rich, is an Australian palaeontologist. He is, as of 2019, Senior Curator of Vertebrate Palaeontology at Museums Victoria. Education and career He was a student of Professor Ruben Arthur Stirton. This pushed him to become aware of potential in Australia to make fundamental discoveries about mammalian evolutionHe graduated in 1973 from Columbia University in New York City with a P.h.D. in Geology.
