Dr. Elizabeth Guillette, PhD

Associate Professor/Researcher of Anthropology at University of Florida

Louis' wife Elizabeth "Buzzy" Guillette, PhD and associate professor at University of Florida, is best known for her Yaqui Valley children studies. She capitalized on a natural experiment when part of an indigenous group moved away from the Yaqui Valley to the foothills to avoid chemical sprays used on the crops in the valley. Elizabeth found troubling differences in the second generation children in the valley that are worth noting today. This is a landmark study that is taught in environmental studies at universities.
