露西布朗 (1889–1971) was born and lived her entire life in Cincinnati. She received a bachelor's and master's degree from the 辛辛那提大学 before becoming the second woman in the sciences and the third woman ever to receive a Ph.D. Her sister Annette was the first. 露西获得了博士学位.D. in 1914, six years before woman won the right to vote in the U.S.

Dr. Braun was a remarkable individual, encompassing many roles in her life: sister, 老师, 自然资源和, 最重要的是, 科学家. Lucy was one of the first people to conduct scientific research in the field of plant ecology. Her research culminated in the book Deciduous Forests of Eastern Northern America (1950), a groundbreaking publication that received recognition and praise for its detailed documentation of deciduous trees from New Brunswick to Florida. In all, Braun published over 180 works, including four books and papers in 20 different journals.

Lucy’s effort to preserve a small xeric limestone prairie, 现在被称为“山猫草原”,” resulted in not only the preservation of this small 22-acre parcel, but this first acquisition also acted as the cornerstone of what was to become the 20,000英亩的理查德 & Lucile Durrell 阿巴拉契亚的边缘 Preserve System. The conservation of this small patch of prairie was important not just locally. Her efforts led directly to the establishment of what would become the largest conservation organization in the world – The Nature Conservancy, which would go on to help conserve over 119 million acres worldwide.
