已故美国孢粉学家Jane Gray (1929--2000) 1951年毕业于波士顿的Radcliffe College，获学士学位。该学院曾是美国东北部7所著名的女子文理学院之一，但已被合并到哈佛大学。

   1958年，Jane Gray在加州大学伯克利分校(University of California at Berkeley; UCBerkeley)完成博士学位论文，其论文指导老师为著名古植物学家、美国科学院院士Ralph Works Chaney (钱耐，1890—1971)。

   Ralph Works Chaney本人主要研究新生代植物大化石，但Jane Gray的博士论文研究俄勒冈哥伦比亚高原中新世的植物孢粉。Jane Gray是20世纪下半叶很活跃的孢粉学家之一，她运用孢粉学手段将她的研究范围拓展到早期陆地植物。
