The cast of characters includes paleoanthropologists Tim White of the United States and Michel Brunet of France, African zoologist Meave Leakey, and British geologists Martin Pickford and Brigitte Senut. She eventually became a paleoanthropologist teaching at Case Western Reserve, writing scholarly articles on such varied subjects as bone biology and cannibalism.
