==Early life==
Lockley was born in the Channel Islands, UK in 1950 and grew up in South Wales〔Dino Land Paleontology Interviews, ( ''Dr Martin Lockley'' )〕 on a nature reserve, now the Orielton Field Studies Centre.〔(Orielton Field Studies Centre )〕 His interest in natural history grew under the influence of his father, Ronald M. Lockley (1903–2000) who became well known as a Welsh naturalist (ornithologist) and author of more than 50 books.
Lockley moved to England in the early 1960s where he attended Leighton Park School and twice (1966, 1968) won the All England Schools championship in shot put. Later after earning a BSc in Geology from the Queens University Belfast, he embarked on a career in palaeontology under the guidance of his mentor Sir Alwyn Williams FRS obtaining a PhD from the University of Birmingham (1977). As a graduate student and post-doctoral researcher at Glasgow University (1977–1980) he studied Welsh Ordovician paleoecology and represented Wales in athletics.〔http://www.cafescicolorado.org/CafeSci2%20Lockley.htm〕
In 1980 Lockley took a position as Assistant Professor of Geology at the University of Colorado Denver, and began his field oriented research on fossil footprints. Before then, few people had studied fossil footprints in the Rocky Mountain region, despite what turned out to be an abundance of important sites, including the Purgatoire Dinosaur Tracksite site in southeast Colorado. As the fossil footprint collections grew, Lockley created the Dinosaur Tracks Museum acting as Curator/Director there from 1966 until 2012. During this time he became a founding member of the Museum of Western Colorado with Dinosaur Ridge near Denver. He built up the fossil footprint collection to include more than 2,700 specimens representing Colorado, Utah.〔http://www.ucdenver.edu/about/newsroom/newsreleases/Pages/Dinosaur-Tracks-Museum-in-its-last-year-at-CU-Denver.aspx〕
