Bryn Mader is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences and Geology at Queensborough Community College of the City University of New York (CUNY). Prior to that, he worked at the American Museum of Natural History in New York and the State University of New York at Old Westbury. Dr. Mader received a Bachelor of Science degree from the State University of New York at Stonybrook (1982) and both a Master of Science (1987) and Ph.D. (1991) from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. For the past thirty years his research has focused primarily on the systematics, phylogeny, and evolutionary biology of brontotheres. He was the first person to present a revision of North American brontothere species since the monumental two-volume monograph of Henry Fairfield Osborn (published almost seventy years earlier). Dr. Mader has also published papers concerning fossil horses, oreodonts, pterosaurs, and dinosaurs.
