Greg Retallack picked up his first fossil as a 6-year-old on a beach in Coledale, Australia. The fossil-- a clam shell -- sparked a lifelong passion for collecting all over the world. Retallack, a University of Oregon geology professor, recently donated most of it to the UO's Museum of Natural and Cultural History.
