Lorus and Margery Milne could not have had more different backgrounds– he was the only child of a well-off Canadian family that valued decorum, she was and adventure-loving New York City kid who frequently escaped to the zoo and loved eating her lunch up in a tree. When the two met as zoology students at Woods Hole Biological Station, it was love at first sight. Their lives wrapped around natural history, writing, and each other. As authors and UNH professors, they traveled for National Geographic, published over 50 books, and made appearances on national TV.
