MICHIGAN BOTANICAL CLUB
Lifetime Achievement Awards

The Lifetime Achievement Award was authorized by the MBC Board of Directors in October 1997.  It is intended to be presented only on very special occasions.

The first Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Dr. Edward Voss for his long-time service to the club and the completion of his monumental three-volume work, Michigan Flora.  The award was presented to Dr. Voss in his office at the University of Michigan Herbarium by  MBC Vice-President Dan Skean.  It was a life-size carving of a dwarf lake iris, Iris lacustris, which had been hand-carved and painted by Jim Sams of London, Kentucky.

The second Lifetime Achievement Award was awarded posthumously to Dr. Warren H. Wagner.
