Extract

For over 30 years, Ted White has scoured the quarries and road cuts of the lower Platte River Valley in southeastern Nebraska for late Pennsylvanian invertebrate and vertebrate fossils. His years of collecting have provided information that significantly amplifies the history of the late Pennsylvanian in the entire North American Midcontinent. Some highlights of Ted's influence in paleontology show that he is an excellent and well-deserving recipient of the Harrell L. Strimple Award for 1986. Ted's work has not only led several young people into paleontological careers but has altered the course of research of many established professionals.
