▪ 2007
James Gary 
      American sculptor (b. March 17, 1939, Sebastian, Fla.—d. Jan. 14, 2006, Freehold, N.J.), used parts from junked automobiles to create nearly life-size brightly coloured, graceful, and engaging sculptures of dinosaurs. Gary was a self-taught artist, and his work was exhibited at museums and other venues throughout the U.S., including the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History and the Boston Children's Museum. Beginning in the late 1970s, a traveling exhibition, “20th-Century Dinosaurs,” made appearances in the U.S., Canada, Australia, and Japan.
