Cooke, Charles Wythe
Charles Wythe Cooke (July 20, 1887 - December 25, 1971) was an American geologist, paleontologist, and stratigrapher. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Cooke attended Johns Hopkins University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in 1908 and a Ph.D. in geology in 1912. He held his first job with the U.S. Geological Survey in July 1910 (while he was a graduate student at Johns Hopkins) as a Junior Geologist for the U.S.G.S.'s summer work. He joined the U.S.G.S. in 1913 until 1956, when he retired from the U.S.G.S. on November 30, 1956. That same year, he became a research associate with the Smithsonian, a position he held until his death. Cooke published numerous works, including several maps, from 1914 until his last in 1969.
