Glen Kuban will be bringing his fascinating story to Brunswick Artworks on Wednesday, April 6, speaking about fossil replicas and paleontology-related art.
Glenn has had a lifelong interest in fossils, and as a kid would lay on his bedroom floor and draw dinosaurs for hours. He graduated from the College of Wooster in 1980 with a degree in biology and planned to teach high school science (which he did on and off over the years). However, he spent most of his career as a computer programmer, while doing fossil related research and collecting on the side. After learning various molding and casting techniques while working on dinosaur tracks (and solving a mystery about them) in the 1980's and 1990's, he began casting other kinds of fossils. Glen now spends much of his time making and marketing fossil replicas. He is also active in the North Coast Fossil Club in Cleveland, and enjoys writing and teaching about paleontology and prehistoric life.
