Mary Anning lived about 200 years ago. A bright girl from a poor
family living in a small town on the south coast of England, she
became a successful fossil hunter, dealer and self-taught
scientist. While not fully recognised in her own lifetime because
she was a woman and of the wrong social class, she is now heralded
as a leading figure in the science of palaeontology, which at the
time did not even have a name Her story is well known but there is
only one image of her,painted shortly before her death at age 47.
She made many of her important discoveries of 'mythical sea
dragons' as a teenager and in her twenties. Now, AI technology
enables us to tell Mary's exceptional story with brand-new images -
for curious readers of all ages and to help inspire today's young
fossil entrepreneurs who follow in her wake.
