Most people thought sharks were bloodthirsty killers. Not Eugenie Clark. She became the first person to study sharks in their natural habitat and showed the world that these remarkable creatures were intelligent—and endangered.
Before Eugenie Clark's groundbreaking research, most people thought sharks were vicious, blood-thirsty killers. From the first time she saw a shark in an aquarium, Japanese-American Eugenie was enthralled. Instead of frightening and ferocious eating machines, she saw sleek, graceful fish gliding through the water. After she became a scientist—an unexpected career path for a woman in the 1940s—she began taking research dives and training sharks, earning her the nickname "The Shark Lady."
