Academic background
I completed the B.S. at the University of Michigan in 1960, and the Ph.D. at the University of California (Berkeley) in 1965. I have done fieldwork in Africa beginning with a NSF postdoctoral fellowship for two years at the University of Cape Town, and have continued with shorter periods of fieldwork. I have done fieldwork in Western Australia for three years, and in Michigan for 20 years on population studies of indigo buntings and their brood-parasitic brown-headed cowbirds.
