IN lVIEMORIAM RUTH DIXON TURNER 1914-2000

Ru th Turner was born in Melrose. December 7. 1914. She attended Bridgewater State College. MA and graduated v.rith a B.S. in 1936. She became a school teacher. teaching in both Bondville. Vermont and North Reading. Massachusetts before accepting the appointment of Assistant Director of Education at the Nev,1 England Museun1 of Natural History (now the Museum of Science). Ru th subsequently became Assistant Curator of Birds at the Museun1. before moving to Vassar College as an fnstructor in the Biology Depanment. During this same period she completed a M.A. al Cornell. By th is ti,ne Ruth was an acco111plished ornithologist, an in terest that she n1aintained throughout her life. lndeed, it \Vas her interest in birds that first lead her to the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard. While serving as a volunteer in the Department she ,net William J. C lench. Curator of Mollusks. Clench introduced Ruth to Dr. Willia111 Clapp. a pioneer in the study of n1 arine \vood borers. and in 1944 she moved to the Willian1 F. Clapp Laboratories in Duxbury. Massachusetts. It was here that her career as a n1alacologist becan1e firmly established. She returned to two years later to work \Vith Clench. Harvard re111ained her scientific ho111e and a source of great pride to her throughout her career. One of her early field trips with Clench was to Cuba in 1949 to examine local terrestrial and marine 1110Jl usks. She received her Ph.D. fron, . Harvard University in 1954. Her dissertation on the Teredinidae remai ns a standard \VOrk to this day. From 1954 through 1975 she served as Research Associate in the Department of Mollusks ai the Museu,n of Co111parative Zoology. Alexander Agassiz Fellow in Zoology and Ocean­ ography, and Lecturer in Biology at Harvard. In 1976 she becan1e Professor of Biology. Curator in Malacology at the Museu111 of Comparative Zoology. and joint editor of the scientific journal Joh11sonia. Ruth received honorary D.Sc. degrees fron1 New England College and Plymouth State College of the Unjversity of New Hampshire, and held honorary appointn1ents at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, the Woods Hole Oceanographic lnstitution. the Gray Museun1 at the Mari ne Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole. Leigh University, CSIRO and the University of New South Wales in Australia. the University of Puerto Rico. and as an FAO FellO\V in India. Ruth was honored by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as a "Women Pioneer in Oceanography.'' On a lighter but no less important note. Ruth \Vas named "Diver of the Year" by the Boston Sea Rovers, an educational society of whjch she v,as a very proud n1e111ber. Ruth served terms as President of both the American Malacological Union and the Boston Malacological Club. She was a Honorary Life Men,ber of the National Shell Fisheries Association. Ruth was a pioneer in the field of n1arine biodeterioration research, and enjoyed a long tenn relationship with the Office of Naval Researc h. This, co111bined with her work in invertebrate and larval ecology, took her to 111any corners of the globe including France. Belgium, Netherlands, England, Gennany, Denn1ark. Puerto Rico, India, Pakistan, many locations in Australasia, South America. and the former Soviet Union. Although a lead.ing researcher, she enjoyed teachi ng at alI levels fron, special courses for public school teachers. to undergraduate and graduate teaching, to her gentle persuasion of fellow researchers to look at a proble111 or a data set in another li ght. Ruth's v.rork also took her on many oceanographic cru ises and to the depths of the ocean. On August 13, 1971, she beca111e the first woman to dive in the deep submergence research vehicle ALVlN. This was the first of n1any dives and a deep sea career that included long term biodeterioration and species diversity work in rhe deep ocean (it \Vas Ruth who explained why so little \VOOd ren,ained on the Titanic when it was found deep in the North Atlantic Ocean), and participation in n1u lti -investigator cruises to the Galapagos Rift systc 111.

Despite a career fil led with discovery, innovation. and firsts, the 1nost n1en1orable component of Ruth's character that ren,ains wid, the majority of people who n1et her is her \Varmth and friendliness, and her desire 10 show the excitement of science to all. Her love of science was effusive. She had a unique ability lo share her science with audiences of all ages and skill levels. She was equally a superb teacher, illustrator. and practical scientist fron1 fine work with the electron microscope 10 dissections of material from the field. Ruth taught and n1entored man y scientists at many levels. unselfish ly giving of her time and energy to advance their careers. I consider myself fortunate to have enjoyed such direction fron1 Ruth. Ruth shared much of her science through her pubJi cations. over I 00 in all. Ruth worked actively until well after her 80th birthday. She left un finished two n1ajor works, a 111onograph on her studies of deep sea borers and a con1prehensive illustrated catalog of the pholads. Her coll eagues have committed to finish these. Throughout her career Ruth made un ique contri bu ti ons in malacology and deep sea biology. She \.vas an internationally respected educator and researcher. an ambassador for marine and biodeteriorati on studies, and an outstanding role model for ,vomen in science. Ruth is su rvived by her sisters Winifred Garrity and Lina MacNeil. Ruth was predeceased by her brothers Henry and Arthur, and her sisters Jessie. Mary. and Frances. Ruth never n1arried. but had a large extended family of colleagues and students. She will be sadly 1njssed.
