A Tribute to Dr. Martin Lockley

Please enjoy this moving and beautifully produced short video tribute to the late paleontologist Dr. Martin Lockley who passed away on November 25, 2023. This video was produced by the Korean Broadcasting System using excerpts from an award-winning documentary KBS created in 2022 featuring Dr. Lockley at various fossil tracksites including Dinosaur Ridge.

Our deepest appreciation to Dr. Jong-Deock LIM (Paleontologist and long-time friend and colleague of Dr. Lockley’s) and Mr. Kwang-Rok LEE & Ms. Narun JO (Korean Broadcasting System) for permission to share this wonderful tribute to our mutual friend.
