Board of Trustees Honor Roll of Donors

DEAR FRIENDS, The Field Museum is essential to Chicago’s story. From our founding as part of the World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893, we have become a world-class research and public learning institution. Similarly, our collection is an iconic scientific resource, now an astonishing 24.5 million biological specimens and anthropological artifacts. Twenty-first century frontiers have emerged in the sciences to entice and challenge our scholars. And museum audiences—in Chicago and around the world—bring fresh ideas about learning experiences and an appetite for technologies unforeseen just five years ago. To again realize the potential of your Museum, we have embarked on a new expedition—to define our contributions in this new century and earn again our iconic status. We are a community of scientists and educators whose work is made possible by friends and donors like you. As you will read in this report, with your help, we collect, research, act, teach, and share. For all you have done to bring The Field Museum to its 120th successful year, we are profoundly grateful. And to build the institution’s bright future, we invite your ideas, leadership, and support. Warm regards,

John W. Rowe

Collections.

Some visitors wonder why The Field Museum continues to collect. The answer

is that the Museum collects in order to build an encyclopedic resource for the world scientific community as they explore the mysteries of life on the planet. “Scientists from around the world seek out our collections for their breadth,” explains Bill Stanley, director of the Collections Center and Negaunee collection manager of mammals. Last year, 700 scientists conducted research in the collections, and the Museum shipped 57,000 specimens across the globe for study. Scientists in Chicago and abroad used the collections to investigate such topics as the DNA of bird viruses, anti-cancer properties of plants, and the dynamics of pre-historic extinction events. The collections are the record of life on Earth. The Museum preserves this record through careful stewardship and conservation, from desalinating Incan ceramics to installing state-of-the-art storage for the insects collection. And the staff ensures the value of this record by making it accessible to scientists and educators worldwide either in person or, increasingly, online. The collections are also the heart of the exhibition halls. When you explore the galleries, you experience these collections and learn about their scientific significance. The exhibits make the collections come to life for you.

SCIENCE

Collections, research, and action are the three branches of our scientific work. Collections are the storehouse of information that fuels research about nature and culture. Research answers questions about Earth’s past and present and charts the complexity of species and societies. Action brings research to life by marshaling scientific data to address problems that affect the planet and its people today. Taken together, our science informs all programs and exhibitions that make up our public education efforts.

Coin suggests the Chinese Traded in Africa Before the Arrival of Europeans An expedition led by Curator of Anthropology Chapurukha (Chap) Kusimba and colleague Dr. Sloan R. Williams unearthed a 600-year-old Chinese coin on Manda Island in Kenya. It may confirm direct trade between China and East Africa decades before European explorers set sail. The coin was issued by Emperor Yongle (r. 1403–25 AD). The square hole in the center permitted wearers to string it on a belt. The Emperor’s name is written on the coin, making it easy to date. Dr. Kusimba explains the coin introduces new questions about the relationship

Expedition Yields Plants that May Identify Signs of Global Warming Adjunct Curator and McCarter Collections Manager Matt von Konrat led an international team of scientists on an expedition to New Caledonia, an island in the South Pacific and one of 35 biodiversity hotspots in the world. Dr. von Konrat and the team collected 5,000 early land plants (bryophytes), ferns, and lichenized fungi. An expedition of this scale in New Caledonia is unprecedented. The trip generated dozens of new genus and species records for the island and several new species, including a tree fern. Due to their small size, bryophytes and lichens respond rapidly to environmental and ecological change. Scientists use them to identify early signs of global warming and past climate change.

Bigger was Better for Plant-eating Dinosaurs 6m

Most theropod dinosaurs were carnivores like T. rex, but some evolved into gigantic herbivores perhaps rivaling T. rex in size. 4.5m

SCIENCE

Research.

Visitors new to The Field Museum may be surprised to learn the Museum conducts

research. Research gives purpose to the collections these visitors see and unlocks the information they contain. The scientific staff works in the social sciences (anthropology), life sciences (botany and zoology), and earth sciences (paleontology and meteoritics). In 2012, foundations and federal agencies awarded the Museum $2.7 million in new research grants. With this support, the scientific staff CT-scanned mummies to understand the burial habits of ancient Egyptians, used DNA barcoding to understand the evolutionary relationships of fungi, and described a new species of small dinosaur from Argentina. Their work resulted in 270 articles and books, enriching the world’s foundation of scientific knowledge. Their investigations brought them to 30 countries, from as near as Mexico and Peru to as distant as China and Kenya. Entwined with the Museum’s research is a commitment to training the next generation of scientists. The Museum partners with major universities, including Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, and the University of Illinois at Chicago. Graduate students from these institutions work side by side with the Museum’s scientists on their dissertations and use the collections as a primary resource for their research. In 2012, the scientific staff hosted 50 resident graduate students and 24 postdoctoral researchers. They also mentored young scientists in dozens of countries in Africa, Latin America, Asia, and the Pacific. A commitment to interdisciplinary research increasingly will define the Museum’s scientific work. “Moving forward, we will not only continue our collections-based research programs,” explains Dr. Olivier Rieppel, © American Museum of Natural History,  photographer Roderick Mickens

director of the Integrative Research Center and Rowe family curator of evolutionary biology, “but also encourage new, integrative, and collaborative initiatives.” For more information about the Museum’s research accomplishments, see fieldmuseum.org/explore/ collections-and-research-annual-reports.

Jordan’s Rule Does Apply to Octopuses affect countable traits in fishes. The number of spines in the dorsal fin of two fishes hatched from eggs in different water temperatures will vary. During an expedition to the East Pacific Rise, Associate Curator of Invertebrates Janet Voight collected specimens that allowed her to test if Jordan’s Rule applies to octopuses. Although sucker counts were considered to be species specific, Field Museum specimens of the same species Dr. Voight collected at 9 degrees north differed from those collected at 13 degrees north, suggesting Jordan’s Rule may apply to many animals.

In 2009, as an undergraduate at Dominican University, Ms. Strozier began interning with the Museum’s botany team under Dr. Matt von Konrat. With his tutelage over the past four years, she advanced from databasing collections to performing molecular research. Ms. Strozier says the Museum provided her with solid training and mentors. Sushma Reddy, former post-doctoral researcher, advised her on building her credentials for graduate school. This spring, Ms. Stozier gained admission to several universities to pursue a master’s degree in biology. She will accept an offer soon.

Preservation of the First Great Wall of China Encouraged Most people are aware of the Great Wall of China. Fewer people are familiar with the earlier great walls of China. Curator of East Asian Anthropology Dr. Gary Feinman and Adjunct Curator of Anthropology Linda Nicholas mapped 10 kilometers of China’s first great wall, the Great Wall of the Qi state. This wall crossed what is now Shandong Province, separating the Qi state from its enemies to the south. The mapping took place during the seventeenth season of collaboration with colleagues at Shandong University. The project has covered 2,000 square kilometers, the largest contiguous area systematically surveyed by archaeologists in East Asia. By mapping the wall and reporting its condition and location to local government officials, the team aims to encourage its preservation and conservation.

SCIENCE

Action.

Some visitors wonder how the Museum’s research affects their lives. The Museum

puts its scientific expertise and the powerhouse of information in the collections to work to ensure the future of the planet. The Museum’s action efforts focus on addressing pressing issues in conservation and cultural understanding. Through key partnerships, in the past year the Museum provided the information that equipped governments in the lush Andes-Amazon region to protect vast expanses of forests and prepared Cordillera Azul National Park for the carbon market. The Museum also worked with indigenous communities in northern Peru to develop quality of life plans and secure government protection of their lands. In the Chicago region, the Museum leads collaborations to bring people and nature together, notably in initiatives like Chicago Wilderness and the 220-square-mile Millennium Reserve. These local partnerships harness the energy of citizen-scientists and connect young people with nature. In 2012, the Museum engaged 3,500 students in the restoration of 18 natural areas; and its stewardship program for children, Mighty Acorns, was recognized by both the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and the US Fish and Wildlife Service as a top environmental program for urban youth. Foundations and federal agencies awarded the Museum $6.7 million in new grants to support this work in 2012. “Turning science into action will be a growing part of our science programs in the coming years,” says Dr. Corine Vriesendorp, director of the Science Action Center and senior conservation ecologist. For more information about the Museum’s conservation and quality-of-life accomplishments, see ecco.fieldmuseum.org.

The project was certified in early 2013. Generous support for this project was provided by Exelon Corporation, The Boeing Company, The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, and the US Agency for International Development.

Shark Fin Soup Research Leads to the Protection of Threatened Species A. Watson Armour III Manager of the Pritzker Laboratory Kevin Feldheim and collaborators at Stony Brook University conducted the first nationwide study of the Chinese delicacy shark fin soup. With numerous shark species facing extirpation, the study sought to identify the species used in the soup, which is sold in restaurants in the United States. A major obstacle to this research had been the deterioration of DNA due to preparation and cooking. At the Pritzker Laboratory, Dr. Feldheim and the team modified existing DNA-barcoding techniques to identify deteriorated DNA fragments. They found threatened species are prevalent in the soup sold in the United States. The Pew Environment Group, which funded the research, is using the data to advocate against these practices. In April 2013, the New York

Guidebook to Help Local Natural Resource Managers Respond to Climate Changes The climate is changing rapidly in Chicago. Since 1980, the temperature in winter has increased 4°F. Since 1900, the annual rate of heavy rainfall has doubled. Rapid changes in climate threaten natural resources. For Chicago to manage its resources in an effective, cost-efficient way, it must respond to these changes. To help Chicago’s policy makers and natural resource managers adopt best practices, the Museum (with The Nature Conservancy and the University of Notre Dame) in collaboration with the City developed the Climate Considerations guidebook. This guidebook offers a framework for policy makers and landscape managers to think about the “climate question,” so they can create landscapes

Education. Programs move the learning experience in a museum to one of hands-on engagement with the collections and the experts who study them. The Museum invests its expertise in the educational needs of the community, especially local school children. Since 1912, the Museum has brought science into local classrooms. Its student programs strive to develop children’s critical thinking skills thus preparing them for the future. Its teacher programs build educators’ capacity to carry forth this mission. In 2012, the Museum engaged in a major realignment of its education programming. “Focusing on Pre-K to grade 12 and family audiences, we have created initiatives that help children explore science and develop critical thinking skills,” explains Director of Education Beth Crownover. Efforts over the next five years will concentrate on three major educational needs in the Chicago community: building children’s awareness of science, enhancing science in the classroom, and engaging teens in science. The Museum employs an inquiry-based approach to learning rooted in the collections to develop an interest in science with target audiences. This approach provides the Museum with an opportunity to engage young learners in a dialogue about discovery in which they ask questions, make observations, and draw conclusions. This is similar to the way our scientists engage in their work. The programs comprise three audience-focused teams. The Public Programs team builds young children’s awareness of science via experiences that begin with the Crown Family PlayLab. The School Partnerships and Programs team enhances science in the classroom through intentional partnerships and teacher professional development using the N. W. Harris Learning Collection as its base. The Digital Learning team engages teens in science through digital programs in the

Award-winning School Partnership Improves Science Education in the Chicago Public Schools A stumbling block to science education efforts is the low number of teachers who have strong science backgrounds. The Museum addresses this deficit through programs designed to improve teachers’ knowledge of science and classroom skills. Early Elementary Science Partnership (E2SP), the Museum’s premier professional development program, takes this work one step further and focuses solely on K–3 Chicago Public School (CPS) teachers. The E2SP pilot worked with 143 teachers and 6,930 students from 2010 to 2013 and merged CPS’s science curriculum with education resources at local museums. Participating teachers learned to use these resources to progressively build children’s understanding of science. In 2012, E2SP won the prestigious EdCom Award from the American Alliance of Museums for excellence in educational programming.

Exhibitions.

The Museum teaches through objects. When several senses

are involved, it is easier to learn about complex ideas. Through the experience of seeing and discussing objects with family and friends, visitors interpret the objects and apply them to abstract concepts. More than 1.2 million people each year visit the Museum to experience its exhibitions. Special exhibitions introduce a diverse range of topics to audiences in addition to the core concepts shared by permanent exhibitions. In 2012, the Museum presented ten special exhibitions. Topics included the exploitation of natural resources in Blood/Stones: Burmese Rubies, the history of kingship in Maharaja: The Splendor of India’s Royal Courts, and the concept of statesmanship in Genghis Khan. The year also saw a major shift in the vision for special exhibitions. The Museum will present more exhibitions created from its collections and about its research. Two new multi-year exhibition series will carry forth this concept: Opening the Vaults and Straight from The Field. Opening the Vaults focuses on rarely seen objects in the collections. The overwhelming popularity of Opening the Vaults: Mummies inspired the series. Presenting twenty Egyptian and South American mummies, many of which had not been seen publicly in decades, the exhibition drew record numbers of visitors. Straight from The Field uses the collections to engage visitors in the lives of scientists and their research. This concept shaped Fashion and The Field Museum Collection: Maria Pinto. The exhibition explores how historical objects continue to influence the present.

Research on the Museum’s extensive mummy collection—CT scanning, isotopic testing, and DNA analysis—reveals much about the health and beliefs of individuals who lived thousands of years ago. Opening the Vaults: Mummies showcased these findings and brought to the public twenty mummies from Egypt and Peru. Many had not been seen since 1893, when they were exhibited at the World’s Columbian Exposition. Presented in their original

nineteenth-century display cases, the mummies rested alongside detailed CT scans and interactives that exposed methods of mummification, signs of injuries and illnesses, and jewelry. Mummies experienced the highest per-day attendance of any exhibition since Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs in 2006. Opening the Vaults: Mummies was created by The Field Museum.

birds in the world. The new hall celebrates old and new. The renovations honor the historical significance of the exhibit cases by leaving intact the original arrangements; yet, they are integrated with the latest technology to relay research in a modern, immersive manner. Interactive kiosks and huge atmospheric animations enhance the visitor experience. Exhibition preparators cleaned and repaired 1,100 specimens. The renovation will be a model for enhancing other iconic halls, including Mammals of Asia and Plants of the World. The Field Museum acknowledges the generous support from Ronald and Christina Gidwitz and The Grainger Digital Initiative.

Exhibitions

Renovated and modernized in 2012, the Searle Family Lounge will serve as a new model for enhancements to permanent exhibitions: classic design aesthetic paired with interactive features and digital components. Cherry-stained wooden exhibition cases are inspired by the Museum’s original early twentieth-century cases. Digital components, including touchscreens, convey content in a manner appealing to young, digital-age, visitors. Information, carefully selected by Field Museum scientists, is uploaded to these tools. The technology permits visitors to enhance their experiences in immersive ways. The renovation was made possible by Michael, Nydia, and Mrs. William L. Searle, whose family contributions to

the Museum have spanned three generations.

Enhancement to Incoming Exhibition Increases Visitor Attendance Genghis Khan demonstrated how the Museum’s exhibitions team and curators redesign special shows organized by outside entities to increase visitor engagement. The Museum redeveloped Genghis Khan’s text-heavy graphic panels and presented a hierarchy of information. Curators, incorporating the theme of world empires, placed the Mongol Empire in broad historical context. The exhibition saw a 163 percent increase in visitors compared to the typical special exhibition. The work was made possible because the Museum possesses an in-house exhibition production center, a rarity among institutions. It is one of the largest in the country. Genghis Khan is produced by Imagine Exhibitions Inc. Lead Sponsor: Allstate Insurance Company

Claudia Winkler Claudia Winkler fondly recalls visiting the McDonald’s Fossil Prep Lab in 1997 with her niece and nephew to watch preparators clean SUE’s bones for public display. She immediately was drawn to the incredible fossil and decided, “when I retire, I am going to be a SUE docent.” In July 2010, she did just that. Today, Claudia can be spotted Wednesday afternoons engaging Museum guests with SUE. After one year as a docent, she increased her annual giving by joining The Founders’ Council. “My love of SUE and my desire to help scientific research have made me feel so much more a part of the Museum now.” Her support didn’t stop there. Last year, she made a provision for the Museum in her living trust: “You have to decide what has become most important to you and what your legacy is going to be.”

Wilbur (Bill) Gantz In 2012, The Field Museum proudly welcomed Dr. Ben Marks to its scientific staff. He succeeded Dr. Dave Willard, who retired as collections manager of the division of birds and oversaw 500,000 specimens. Ben’s appointment was made possible by Trustee Bill Gantz, who established an endowment to provide for the care and continued expansion of the birds collection. Once a volunteer with the birds group, Ben received his doctorate at Louisiana State University and, more recently, managed zoological collections at Texas A&M University. He brings with him expertise in the evolution and geographic distribution of bird species.

Robert (Bob) Loveman Trustee Bob Loveman has been an advocate, friend, and champion of The Field Museum for decades. Serving as Steering Committee Chair of The Founders’ Council for the last seven years, he has opened his home to share the latest scientific research with familiar faces along with new friends interested in making an impact at the Museum. His dedication to the Trustees’ Annual Fund played a crucial role in achieving 100 percent participation in 2012. Bob and his wife, Gail, care deeply for Earth and its people, as evidenced by their financial contributions and their roles with the volunteer fire department in Boulder, Colorado.

At age 16, William Kellogg began volunteering at The Field Museum, where he learned the art of taxidermy. He describes the Museum as a center for learning about the past and understanding the future that stimulates intellectual development in both the young and the old. This belief led to his support (through General Packaging Products) of the e-book Art & Science of Birds (forthcoming) by Artist-in-Residence Peggy Macnamara with curators Drs. Shannon Hackett and John Bates. Art & Science of Birds explores the scientific and artistic perspectives on birds through Ms. Macnamara’s work.

Adnaan Hamid and Elissa Efroymson Trustee Adnaan Hamid grew up visiting The Field Museum. He became reacquainted with the institution once he had children of his own. He is grateful to share his support of the Museum with his children to teach them “it is a part of what makes society better. You can actually go in and see the effect your gift has and watch how science is employed throughout the Museum’s work.” Sharing a passion for education, Adnaan and his wife, Elissa Efroymson, funded educational programming for Maharaja: The Splendor of India’s Royal Courts through the Efroymson Family Fund. In these programs, India came to life for others. Children learned about the country through interactive play and art projects in the Crown Family PlayLab. And 6,400 visitors enjoyed spectacular dance, musical, and storytelling performances by the Kalapriya Center for Indian Performing Arts.

Hugo J. Melvoin (1929–2013) The Field Museum mourns the loss of Hugo Melvoin, trustee and dedicated member of The Field Museum’s family. Growing up in Chicago, Hugo was a lifelong fan of the Museum. He joined the Board of Trustees in 1971 and distinguished himself in numerous subjects, including the principles of collections care. His efforts reflected his admiration for the Museum’s scientists, “whose passions lead them to devote a lifetime of study to the flora, fauna, geology, and diversity of cultures that make up this planet.” His legacy is interwoven throughout the Museum’s policies and practices.

Honor Roll of Donors

49

THANK YOU, JOHN The Field Museum gratefully acknowledges John W. McCarter Jr. for his sixteen-year service as the institution’s president and CEO. His tenure will be remembered as an era of substantial accomplishments. He undertook ambitious capital projects to advance the Museum’s scientific mission and increase its international profile. To enable this work, he led campaigns that raised $500 million. John encouraged the expansion of the traveling and special exhibition programs with blockbusters, such as Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs. No one will forget the acquisition of SUE, now the most famous dinosaur in the world. Replicas have traveled internationally since 2000 and attracted large audiences across the world, from Japan to Costa Rica, New Zealand, and Spain. The Museum now greets 27 million travelers each year at O’Hare International Airport through the addition of The Field Museum Store in terminals one and three and a towering cast of Brachiosaurus. John celebrated research and collections. With scientists collecting in 30 countries each year, storage onsite became scarce. He championed the Collections Resource Center, which added 186,000 square feet of new storage space and laboratories. John also passionately supported the Museum’s scientific commitment to environmental conservation. During his tenure, the Museum conducted 25 rapid inventories, which document biodiversity and record the strengths and aspirations of local villagers. These inventories have motivated governments around the world to set aside 33 million acres of forests. In 2012, the Board of Trustees led a special effort to endow research and collections care at The Field Museum. The McCarter Fund for Science will ensure the legacy of achievement for which The Field Museum and John are renowned.
