Statue Of Fossil Hunter Mary Anning Unveiled
LYME REGIS, ENGLAND - MAY 21: American novelist Tracy Chevalier reads an excerpt from her novel "Remarkable Creatures" prior to the unveiling of the statue of Mary Anning on May 21, 2022 in Lyme Regis, England. The life-size bronze statue of fossil hunter Mary Anning was made possible by a fundraising campaign led by local schoolgirl Evie Swire. Evie and her mother, Anya Pearson, realised that the resort had no statue to mark her history. More than £100,000 was raised by the charity Mary Anning Rocks to pay for the statue. The film "Ammonite", loosely based on the story of the paleontologist starring Kate Winslet was released in 2020. (Footage by Finnbarr Webster/Getty Images)
