Phoebe Cohen is an Associate Professor at Williams College, a small liberal arts school in the Berkshires of Massachusetts. She studies tiny fossils and what they can teach us about the history of life, especially life before animals evolved. Her research involves field work to exotic places like the Yukon and the Cleveland suburbs, as well as lots of time spent in the lab dissolving rocks in acid and using fancy microscopes. She lives in Vermont with the wimpiest pit bull ever, as well as her husband and 1 year old son.
