Biography
Vance Holliday is a Professor of Anthropology and Geosciences at the University of Arizona. His work began on the Great Plains of the U.S., focused on reconstructing and interpreting the landscapes and environments in which the first people of North America (Paleoindians) lived, and how these conditions evolved. Since arriving at the UA (after 18 years at the University of Wisconsin) he became Director of the Argonaut Archaeological Research Fund (AARF http://www.argonaut.arizona.edu/), which is devoted to research on the archaeology and geoarchaeology of Paleoindians of the southwestern U.S. and northwestern Mexico.

Recipient of the 1998 George R. “Rip” Rapp Archaeological Geology Career Award of the Geological Society of America.
Elected Fellow of the Geological Society of America (1992).
Invited Organizer, First Annual Fryxell Symposium on Earth Science in Archaeology, Society for American Archaeology (1988).
Recipient of the 1996 Gladys W. Cole Memorial Research Award (Geological Society of America) to study the origin and evolution of small playa basins on the Southern High Plains.
