Q&A with Curator of Mollusks, Tim Pearce
Tim Pearce has loved mollusks since he was a child, transporting a collection of snails around in a cottage cheese carton at the age of three. Now he’s the head of the Section of Mollusks at Carnegie Museum of Natural History, a collection made up of around 1.4 million specimens. The social media “shell-ebrity” himself will be at your service with a joke or two, and answers to all your questions about snails, octopi, clams and more!
