If you've ever heard the name Frances Glessner Lee you might
think "wasn't she that lady who made crime scene dollhouses?"
Making dioramas wasn't just her hobby; she actually had profound
influence on the field of forensic science. We learn a bit about
her in this brief interview with her biographer, Bruce
Goldfarb.
Join us for Science on Tap Online on Thursday,
June 18, at 7pm Pacific for a live talk by Bruce about his book
18 Tiny Deaths: The Untold Story of
Frances Glessner Lee and the Invention of Modern
Forensics.
