We here at the Center for Limnology are, of course big fans of Art Hasler. The man not only got the building we call home built in the first place, he also help bring limnology at UW-Madison into modern scientific times.
That’s why it was so cool when Fritz, Art’s son, reached out to us and sent a link to a photo biography of his father – starting with a picture of Art as an Eagle Scout in Provo, Utah and ending 77 years later, when Art passed away.
The biography includes pictures of Art and his French horn in the Wisconsin Symphony, Art feeding a dolphin, and Art in Germany right after the conclusion of World War II. It is a treasure trove of cool historic photos and a chronicle of an accomplished scientist and doting dad. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Thanks, Fritz, for sending it along! Continue to the bio and pictures –>
