Marcus Ross has loved paleontology (especially dinosaurs) since he was a kid growing
up in Rhode Island. He has continued pursuing this passion, currently researching about a
group of extinct marine reptiles called mosasaurs. He is greatly interested in issues
surrounding the creation-evolution controversy and the intersection of geology with the
Biblical events of creation and Noah's Flood. He and his wife Corinna live in
Lynchburg, Virginia.
