Why Chosen
In honor of my dear friend and mentor, Dr. Ivan L. Berry, who passed away in 2014. Ivan spent many years with USDA-ARS (some in Nebraska) before joining the faculty at the University of Arkansas in 1985 and where I met him in 1990. I still miss his wisdom, sense of humor, and stories of screwworm eradication. Ivan introduced me to the works of Willa Cather, for which I am forever grateful.
