NOAA Legends: Dr. Ambrose Jearld

For NOAA’s 50th anniversary, we interviewed NOAA Legends: people of color who were “firsts” in NOAA science. Dr. Ambrose Jearld joined NOAA in 1977 as one of the first black fisheries biologists at the agency. He dedicated his nearly 40-year career to making science more accessible to a diverse body of students and researchers.
