Madeline Munro
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Munro trained as a palaeontologist under Edmund Johnston Garwood[2] and graduated with a degree in geology from the University of London in 1907.[1] In 1912, she published an appendix on the rare trepostome bryozoan stenophragmidium to one of Garwood's papers "The Lower Carboniferous Succession in the North-West of England" in the Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society.[2][3] Her work was titled "Description of some new forms of Trepostome Bryozoa from the Lower Carboniferous rocks of the North Western province."[4][5] In 1930, Munro was elected as a fellow of the Geological Society of London.[6]
Munro also sat on the science committee of the British Film Institute and wrote reviews of scientific films for the Monthly Film Bulletin periodical.[1] She was consulted during the production of school broadcasts in nature study and science by the BBC.[1]
