Paleontologist Barbara A. Bedette; Specialized in Cenozoic Mollusks

The Washington Post | March 5, 2006| | Copyright

Barbara Audrey Bedette, 73, whose interest in snails, clams and other mollusks reached back 65 million years, and whose work is likely to benefit scientists for generations to come, died of acute leukemia Feb. 23 at George Washington University Hospital. She was a Washington resident.

For 52 years, Miss Bedette worked for the U.S. Geological Survey's paleontology and stratigraphy branch. She specialized in Cenozoic molluscan paleontology, a science that uses fossils to study life in the past.

She neither described new species nor published groundbreaking research on a particular animal ...
