Wallace is considered the father of the scientific discipline now known as Biogeography. ==Background== Born in Jamestown, New York, Willman grew up in Ohio, first in Oberlin but in his teens his family moved to Smithville, where he graduated from high school. Willman began his broadcasting career in Wooster Ohio at WWST AM-FM when he was 17. After a year in Wooster, he moved on to radio stations in Canton and Steubenville, Ohio before spending almost ten years in Columbus, Ohio. In 1986 he moved to Washington D.C., where he began working as a production assistant on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition. He later served as a newscaster, special events anchor and producer during his years working at NPR. When the first Gulf War began in January 1991, Willman provided newscasts from London for NPR for several months. These were the only newscasts ever produced by NPR to have originated from another country. While in London he also reported on several attacks by the Irish Republican Army, most notably their attack on No. 10 Downing Street. His London newscasts were cited in NPR’s receipt of the 1991 Alfred I. duPont–Columbia University Award for Excellence in Broadcast Journalism. Willman also shared in a Peabody Award as producer of the most popular entry in the public radio series, Lost and Found Sound, broadcast by NPR's ''All Things Considered''. The story focused on CKLW. In 1991, Willman became morning host for Monitor Radio. His work was carried by more than 200 radio stations in the U.S., and was heard on shortwave radio around the world. In 1993 he left monitor over a highly publicized ethical dispute. During the 1990s, Willman worked periodically as a producer and correspondent for the CBS Radio Stations News Service (RSNS – now defunct) based in Washington, DC. While with CBS he produced coverage of the Bush-Gorbachev Summit in Washington D.C. He also produced coverage of the Oklahoma bombing of the Murrow Federal Office Building in Oklahoma City. Willman was a national correspondent and environmental reporter for CNN Radio from 1996 to 1998. While there he won an Edward R. Murrow Award (national) for Investigative Reporting given by the Radio-Television Digital News Association (formerly RTNDA) for a series entitled “Broadway’s Dirty Little Secret.” The series documented the exposure to potentially toxic chemicals received by musicians performing nightly during the play, “Beauty and the Beast.” Willman was the only environmental reporter for CNN Radio in the network’s history. While at CNN he also anchored the network’s political convention coverage, and produced a series of stories in the run-up to the 1998 national election during a 12-state road trip across Middle America. In December 2009, a book in which Willman authored a chapter was released.〔() 〕 Climate Change Science and Policy was published by Island Press.
