Dr. Lentz previously served as Director of Graduate Studies at the New York Botanical Garden, was Vice President of Scientific Affairs at the Chicago Botanic Garden, and last year was a fellow at the Dumbarton Oaks Research Library in Washington DC. He is currently writing a book about ancient Mesoamerican agriculture. Dr. Lentz talks about agriculture practices of the Maya, what may have contributed to the civilization’s collapse, and how the photographic collection of Curtis Gates Lloyd provided unique documentation for his studies.
