Ruth Petzold's Very Touching

Ruth Petzold, Very Touching. See more of Ruth Petzold's photographs at www.ruthpetzold.com.

The Library Associates hosted The Magical Mystery of the Sea in March at the Sailfish Club in Palm Beach. Longtime library friend and underwater photographer Ruth Petzold shared slides and stories of her dives off coasts from Australia to Florida, and her personal favorite, the Solomon Islands.

Ruth Petzold's work has appeared in National Geographic Magazine and at museum and gallery shows around the country. Her work has been used by Dr. Eugenie Clark, a well-known marine biologist and shark expert, and she was also awarded a gold medal for International Underwater Photography in Egypt. Though she is a native of Michigan, she now lives in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Ms. Petzold has many family members who are Georgetown alumni.

The Library wishes to thank the Georgetown Club of Palm Beach for their help in arranging this event, and Ray Kramer F'90, L'93 for arranging access to the Sailfish Club.
