Acknowledgments
I was very fortunate, ten years ago, to begin writing a biography about a living person who is remarkably generous and unmanipulative, and thus I will start by acknowledging my deep gratitude to Jane Goodall, who always gave unquestioning access and perfect license. Her family as well—especially Olwen (Olly) Joseph, Margaret Myfanwe (Vanne) Joseph Goodall, and Judith Goodall Waters—were a biographer’s dream. They welcomed me whenever I hoped, answered all questions, and asked none in return. The aunt cheered me up with whisky and funny stories. The mother supplied what seemed like an endless discovery, more and more and more letters from her daughter. The sister consented to inconvenient interviews and odd requests and gave me the keys to several filing cabinets. I am also grateful to several other family members—including Jane Goodall’s son, Hugo (Grub) van Lawick-Goodall; her father, Mortimer Morris-Goodall; her first husband, Baron Hugo van Lawick; and her nieces, Emma and Pip Waters—for consenting kindly to the prodding and prying of interviews. My thanks go as well to Michael Goodall, a member of the larger Goodall clan, who generously lent me his work in progress on the family history.
Jane Goodall’s nanny, Nancy Sowden Rillstone, and her childhood best friend, Sally Cary Pugh, should both be considered virtual family members, and I thank them too for their many hours spent remembering the past. Sally, with amazing generosity, gave up her personal cache of letters, a two-decade correspondence with Red Admiral that started in the mid-1940s.
Three other good friends of Jane Goodall’s from the earlier years have honored that friendship by contributing written and spoken remembrances, and I must express deep appreciation to Margaret Arthur McCloy, Marie-Claude Mange Erskine, and Brian Herne. I am also particularly indebted to Jean Nitzsche, the sister of Ruth Davis, for allowing me to make use of Ruth’s letters home and their mother’s journal; and to David Riss and Emilie Bergmann-Riss for their special openness and the gift of personal memories, letters, and photographs.
Thanks in addition go to Anthony Collins, Carrie Hunter, Marietha Kibasa-Lohay, Mark Leighton, Patrick McGinnis, Anne Pusey, Gerald Rilling, Geza Teleki, Bill Wallauer, and Richard Wrangham for significant impressions of life in the old days at the Gombe Stream Research Centre—and a second thanks to Gerald Rilling, who also donated his herpetological expertise and access to books on East African culture and history via his important and very useful East African history and ecology book service, mailto:eafricbk@ix.netcom.com.
I am grateful to David Hamburg and Robert Hinde for helping fill in background about the scientific dimensions of the Gombe work; and likewise I acknowledge Irven DeVore, Biruté Galdikas, Michael Huffmann, Alison Jolly, Takayoshi Kano, Adriaan Kortlandt, Desmond Morris, Toshisada Nishida, George Schaller, and Richard Wrangham for offering further information about Goodall, Gombe, and primatology’s anthropological, ethological, psychological, and zoological roots. Information about the status of chimpanzees in laboratories and other forms of captivity is significantly based on the information offered by several other experts, including Milton April, Jorg Eichberg, Roger Fouts, John Landon, James Mahoney, Shirley McGreal, Jan Moor-Jankowski, Alfred Prince, and Duane Rumbaugh. Mary Griswold Smith and Neva Folk, formerly of the National Geographic Society, both contributed information, memories, and letters; Neva also opened up the Jane Goodall and Hugo van Lawick files kept in that organization’s archives. Other professional and archival contributions are thanks to Gideon Matwale and Mohemed Isahakia of the National Museums of Kenya and Joan Travis of the L.S.B. Leakey Foundation—and to James Whyman of the Aston Martin Owners Club, Richard Hermann of DoAll and the Wilkie Foundation, Mary Margetts of the Motor Cycling Club, Anne Tomson of Newnham College at Cambridge University, and Corinne Bickford, Lucy Napper, and Sara Wareing of the Queen’s Business and Secretarial College.
Several members of the Jane Goodall Institute staff, both paid and volunteer, periodically fulfilled my often irritating requests for just one more document. In this context, Mary Lewis deserves a multipage appreciation all to herself, since she has served during the past several years as my single most reliable (and cheerful) contact with the institute and its resources and with Jane Goodall herself. Other JGI staff members who deserve special acknowledgment include Christina Ellis, Nona Gandelman, Jennifer Gresham, Dilys MacKinnon, and Mary Paris. My researcher in London, Rachel Kennedy, proved to be exceptionally skilled in tracking down obscure facts and details, and Valerie Rohy did the same in the United States.
Additional information, altogether a wealth of essential facts and details, came from a host of volunteer informants, including Petal Allen, Karl and Kathy Ammann, David Anstey, Rick Asselta, Selena Bush, Teresa Caldwell, Janis Carter, Susan Cary Featherstone, Timothy Green, Richard Hermann, Cathryn Hilker, Aliette Jamart, Mrisho Mpambije Kagoha, Dennis Kane, Paul Kase, Jumanne Kikwale, Michael Latham, Jonathan Leakey, Richard Leakey, Franklin Loew, Kenneth Love, Mark Maglio, Michael and Jenny Mannion, Maureen Marshall, Eve Mitchell, Michael Neugebauer, Betty Pitman, Richard Rhodes, Kay Schaller, John Scherlis, David and Sheila Siddle, Kay Turner, Charlotte Uhlenbroek, Joy Upton, Fiona Vernon, Vivian Wheeler, Robert Young, and Philip Ziegler.
All that information still required some assembly, of course, and for that my editors, agent, friends, and family were critical. My editor, Harry Foster, showed exceptional patience, as did manuscript editors Liz Duvall and Peg Anderson. I am grateful as well for the support and wise counsel of my agent, Peter Matson, of Sterling Lord Literistic. For their important and regular contributions to my mental health during the writing, I should thank my friends David and Martha Reier. But finally, for their logistical and emotional support, I must acknowledge and thank the three people who are really at the center of any book I might imagine I could write: Wyn Kelley and Britt and Bayne Peterson.
