A Glimpse of GrrlScientist

Concisus Vitae


    GrrlScientist is an evolutionary biologist, ornithologist, aviculturist and freelance science and nature writer. A native of the Pacific Northwest, she relocated from Seattle to NYC with her parrots after earning her PhD. In NYC, she was a postdoctoral fellow for two years, reconstructing a molecular phylogeny of the parrots of the South Pacific islands. GrrlScientist has written a science blog since 4 August 2004 (the early years are archived here). GrrlScientist is currently contributing to a collaborative group blog, A Vote for Science, which focuses on the upcoming presidential election and the candidates' positions on science, medicine and technology.

West 86th Street Subway tile mosaic art #4

(This piece was completed in 1989 and was mounted on 2 July 2006).

Artist: Nitza Tufino.

I have photographed tile artworks from several NYC subway stations now, so far, all are westside Manhattan subway lines, including Chambers Street (A & C trains), Houston Street (1 train), Pennsylvania "Penn" station (1, 2 & 3 trains) [subway art archives] and, my favorite subway station of all, the American Museum of Natural History station at 81st and Central Park West (B & C trains) [AMNH archives].

I plan to continue photographing NYC subway station artworks as long as you enjoy seeing them.
