Marilyn Marx will be offering a lecture at the Atwood Museum on Right Whales and her experience as a Right Whale specialist.

In 1994, she joined the New England Aquarium’s Right Whale Research Program. She is involved with the curation and maintenance of the Right Whale Catalog and is responsible for reviewing all images of catalogued whales for anthropogenic scarring. Marilyn also manages the Right Whale Sponsorship Program and is editor of its newsletter, Right Whale Research News.
