Short Bio

Christine Janis is a vertebrate paleontologist of similar vintage to Roy Plotnick. Originally from England, she spent most of her career in the United States, and was also married (second wife) to Plotnick’s doctoral advisor, Jack Sepkoski. She’s now back in the UK as an Honorary Professor at the University of Bristol, doing her best to be retired. She is the proud owner of the only Hypohippus (a browsing equid from about 15 million years ago) plush toy in existence.
