Mark Moffett Biography

Mark Moffett is an entomologist, nature photographer, and explorer. He is is a high school dropout who began doing research in biology in college and went on to complete a PhD at Harvard, studying under the poet-laureate of conservation, Edward O. Wilson. To document the social behavior of Asian ants for his graduate research he learned photography, and his very first images were published in National Geographic magazine.

Moffett is known for documenting new species and behaviors during his exploration of remote places in more than a hundred countries. He takes pleasure not just in physical adventure but in the intellectual challenge of finding connections across fields, whether it’s comparing the structure of bacterial communities and forest canopies, or examining the life and death of societies across the animal kingdom and in humans right up to the present day. When not lost in nature he lives with his wife and fellow globetrotter Melissa Wells in Brooklyn, New York, and keeps an office overflowing with books, tree-climbing gear, entomology supplies, and cameras in Greenport, Long Island.

Mark Moffett Speaking Topics

  • Lecture Topics

    Conservation and the behavior of humans and other species don’t need to be presented as dry statistics and dismal news. Mark challenges himself to find ways to tell stories about the little-known in nature. Through his scientific knowledge and unique, first-hand experiences, he introduces a Universe of special creatures in smart, adrenaline-packed appearances.

    Here are three of his lecture topics:

    • Mark looks at societies across the animal kingdom, and in humans right up to the present day. How do those societies stay intact over the long haul, and what causes them to inevitably break down? How, for example, do we humans accommodate strangers in our societies, when most species cannot?
    • Why modern humans are more like certain ants than we are like our nearest relatives, the chimpanzees. Why are comparisons of ants and humans valuable, and how do ants build societies more complex than we find for any other species in nature other than our own.
    • A rainforest resembles a city, its architectural space providing accommodations for millions of residents. How are rainforests put together, and in what ways do their physical structures compare to that of other natural communities, from coral reefs to (believe it or not) the metropolises of bacteria thriving on our teeth?
