摘要

Marie Tharp was born in 1920 in Ypsilanti, Michigan, USA, to William Edgar Tharp and Bertha Louise Newton. William worked in a plant nursery until the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Bureau of Soils hired him in 1904. Bertha had been a high school German teacher before, as Tharp says her father always used to remark, she "traded one job for another." She died when Tharp was 15. As parents, William and Bertha seem to have been past an age (50 and 40, respectively, when Tharp was born) where coddling their only child was an option. They were devoted, but they trusted her to find her own way and let her explore the unknown so she'd gain confidence. This proved handy, as William's job required them to move nearly every season, following soft soil: winters spent in the south, summers spent in the north. They spent every four years in Washington, D.C., so William could go to the Soil Bureau's main office to oversee the printing of the maps he had worked on since his last visit.
