A few clarifications about me and my work are in order.
How I am not like Lara Croft
- I’m a paleontologist, not an archaeologist or anthropologist. Mixing these up is like thinking all engineers drive trains. Thank you.
- American, not British
- (eventual) Dr/Professor, not Lady
- I do my own library research
- I have a degree
- I work within the academic system
- My boobs aren’t the highlight of my work
- Nor do they need CGI
- Less fire power
- More intellectual power
- Less money
- But I earn it all
- I deal in ideas, not artifacts
- I don’t have a stunt double
- And I don’t get multiple takes
- I’m less likely to get shot at
- I have a cooler dad
- When I get a telescope, it won’t be quite that big
- I like a 1911 Colt .45 to her Magnum .44s
- I’m right handed
- I don’t have a butler. Yet.
That said, I’ll grant a few similarities in acknowledgement of the initial parallel drawn
- My work can potentially take me anywhere in the world
- I collect old things in the field
- I know history
- My interests and work are highly multidisciplinary
- I’m a woman of action
- In a traditionally male job
- I aim to be my best
- I have a statistically unpredictable collection of friends and associates
- I mainly work alone
- And to the beat of my own drum
