James Tomkins
JAMES TOMKINS Talent Profile © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com A three-time Olympic gold medalist and seven-time World champion, James is the most decorated rower in Australian history. He is one of only five Australians to have competed at six Olympic Games. NATIONALITY CAPABILITIES Australian Keynote Guest Panellist DATE OF BIRTH Ambassador 8/19/65 Appearances TEAMS INTERESTS Rowing Australia Health & Nutrition Wellbeing Leadership Family Business © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com BIO James began rowing at Carey Grammar in Melbourne, rising through the ranks to win national titles and earn international selection as stroke of the Men’s Eight at the 1985 World Championships. It was the first chapter in a glittering international career that included six Olympic Games (for three Gold & one Bronze medal), 11 World Championships (for seven world titles, including one in each of the five sweep oar events) and four World Cups (two titles). James competed in three events: the Coxless four, men’s eight and men’s pair and is the only rower in history to win world titles in every sweep oar event.

SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 2 30 WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND TECHNOLOGY The Bark Canoes and Skin Boats of North America Edwin Tappan Adney and Howard I. Chapelle Curator of Transportation SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 — Publications of the United States National Aiuseum The scholarly and scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series, Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum Bulletin. In these series the Museum publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of its constituent museums—The Museum of Natural History and the Museum of History and Technology setting forth newly acquired facts in the fields of Anthropology, Biology, History, Geology, and Technology. Copies of each publication are distributed to libraries, to cultural and scientific organizations, and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers from the Museum of Natural History. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902 papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum of Natural History have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions Jrom the United States National Herbarium, and since 1959, in Bulletins titled "Contributions from the Museum of History and Technology," have been gathered shorter papers relating to the collections and research of that Museum.
