Description
A former NFL cheerleader, daughter of Cuban immigrants and mother of six, Mireya Mayor followed her unlikely dreams. In short order, she became a respected primatologist, audacious explorer, fellow of the National Science Foundation, Fulbright Scholar and an Emmy Award-nominated wildlife correspondent for the National Geographic Channel. Mayor’s exploits have earned her the nickname “the female Indiana Jones,” but the fashion-loving anthropologist always packs a black dress for more formal occasions.
