Bohart Museum Society Celebrates Halloween
Lynn Kimsey Honored
The Bohart Museum Society of the Bohart Museum of Entomology honored UC Davis Distinguished Professor Emerita Lynn Kimsey, the retired director of both the museum and the society, at its annual pre-Halloween party at the Bohart Museum.
Kimsey, who retired as the museum's director in February, 2024 after 32 years, stepped down last week as the society director, but will continue writing the newsletters. To date, she has written more than 100 newsletters. (See archives)
For the occasion, Kimsey dressed as a cecropia moth, while husband/forensic entomologist Robert "Bob" Kimsey wore his traditional Ghillie suit. Both transitioned to emeriti, UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology (ENT-NEM), in 2024.
