Biographical Note
Born in New Jersey in 1950, Dr. Beverly Hartline grew up in the Bay Area of California. The oldest of seven children to Dr. Robert Karplus, theoretical physicist at the University of California at Berkeley, Dr. Hartline was taught at an early age to not only question everything, but to conduct experiments to find the answers she and her siblings were seeking, such as do trees grow from the ground or stretch?
At a family camping trip when she was young, a fellow camper's father asked Dr. Hartline what she wanted to be when she grew up. She promptly responded she wanted a Ph.D. He then chided her, saying she would only grow up to marry and have children. This exchange not only offended her greatly, but also helped fuel her determination.
Dr. Hartline earned her Bachelors of Science from Reed College in Portland, Oregon in 1971. While in graduate school, she would meet her future husband, Fred Hartline, have the first of two boys, and co-authored a book on hiking as well as a kayaking booklet. She graduated with her Ph.D in 1978 from the University of Washington at Seattle.
Dr. Hartline insists upon the understanding that science and engineering are idea-based fields, "the best progress can only be made when many ideas - which means many people with a broad range of backgrounds – are involved." While at Jefferson Lab, she promoted women and girls in STEM fields and participated in outreach not only to teachers, but to the community at large. She served in a myriad of positions, culminating as the Associate Director and Project Manager.
(As of 2019), Dr. Hartline is the Vice-Chancellor for Research and the Dean of the Graduate School at Montana Technical University.
