His wife, Candi, and two young sons, Paul Jr. and Jeffrey, were eager to be involved in its care.\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE AUTHORS\u003c\/strong\u003eLong before \u003cstrong\u003ePaul L. Sieswerda\u003c\/strong\u003e became known for marine research, conservation, and public education, he was a man profoundly drawn to the sea itself. His journey began with seals-stranded pups brought into the New England Aquarium during the early days of marine mammal protection, long before public awareness had caught up. These animals sparked in him a sense of responsibility, compassion, and fascination that symbolized his belief that humans have a duty to care for the vulnerable creatures of the ocean. After retiring from a long and dedicated career as curator at both the New England Aquarium and the New York Aquarium, he continued his lifelong devotion. He founded Gotham Whale; a nonprofit t grounded not just in research but in his enduring desire to share the wonder of marine life with future generations. \u003cstrong\u003eJoy S. Reidenberg, PhD, \u003c\/strong\u003e is a professor at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (in New York City), where she teaches medical and graduate students. She studies the comparative anatomy of animals adapted to environmental extremes, including pinnipeds(true seals, elephant seals, fur seals, sea lions, and walruses). Reidenberg has been featured in many international science and educational television documentaries, interviews, and TED talks. \u003cstrong\u003ePaul J. Sieswerda (PJ)\u003c\/strong\u003e is the son and literary steward of Paul L. Sieswerda. Growing up, PJ was immersed early in the wonder of underwater exploration around the globe with his dad, from the vibrant reefs of the Bahamas and British Virgin Islands to the Red Sea, Micronesia, and Belize. It all started where his dad had volunteered at the New England Aquarium.
