Dian Fossey - Woman in the Mists
Dian Fossey devoted her life to studying the mountain gorillas of Virunga National Park in Rwanda. She was an outspoken advocate of the gorillas, a value that may have cost her life. She was murdered in 1985, but the movie "Gorillas in the Mist" starring Sigourney Weaver has immortalized her cause.

- I remember reading "Gorillas in the Mist" when I was in highschool. I still have my copy. I fell in love with her and gorillas. Her work was vital to our understanding of primates and ultimately ourselves.
