- Wilmot Hyde Bradley (* 4. April 1899 in New Haven (Connecticut); † 12. April 1979 in Bangor (Maine)) war ein US-amerikanischer Geologe. 1944 bis 1959 war er Chefgeologe des US Geological Survey. Bradley studierte zunächst Ingenieurwesen und Chemie und dann Geologie an der Sheffield Scientific School der Yale University, an der er 1920 in Geologie promoviert wurde. Danach war er beim US Geological Survey, wo er die Green-River-Formation des Eozän erforschte, die als potentielle Quelle von Ölschiefer galt. Er wurde zum Experten für diese und publizierte über viele Aspekte der Formation, von der Paläontologie, Geochemie, Paläoklimatologie und Paläolimnologie, Stratigraphie bis zur Mineralogie. 1943 wurde er Chef-Militärgeologe der USA und 1944 Präsident des US Geological Survey. 1970 ging er in Pension. 1972 erhielt er die Penrose-Medaille. Er war Mitglied der National Academy of Sciences, der American Academy of Arts and Sciences und der American Philosophical Society. 1947 wurde er Ehrendoktor in Yale. 1958 erhielt er die Distinguished Service Medal des US-Innenministeriums. 1965 war er Präsident der Geological Society of America. Das Mineral ist ihm zu Ehren benannt und wurde in der Green River Formation gefunden. (de)
- Wilmot Hyde Bradley, a.k.a. "Bill" Bradley (4 April 1899 in New Haven, CT – 12 April 1979 in Bangor, ME) was a co-founder (1943) and Chief of the Branch of Military Geology and Chief Geologist of the U.S. Geological Survey from 1944 to 1959. He was the son of Anna Miner Hyde and John Lucius Bradley. He attended college at the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University and graduated from Yale in 1920 with a Ph.D. in geology, after switching from engineering and chemistry. After two years as geologic aide to Julian D. Sears of the U. S. Geological Survey, he was taken on by the Survey to work full-time on the Eocene Green River Formation because of its oil-shale potential. As a result of his work there, the mineral "trisodium magnesium phosphate carbonate" was named Bradleyite in his honor. On the conclusion of his 48-year career with the Geological Survey in 1970, Bill and his wife retired to Pigeon Hill Bay, Maine, where he continued writing his results from years of research on the Green River Formations and Mud Lake. Bradley was elected to the United States National Academy of Sciences in 1946, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1949, the American Philosophical Society in 1963, served as president of The Geological Society of America (GSA) in 1965 and was awarded GSA's Penrose Medal in 1972. Bill Bradley was buried at a tiny local graveyard situated on his property at Pigeon Hill Road, Steuben, Maine. On his gravestone, he had engraved in advance the phrase, "The Earth has music for those who listen". (Although this phrase is of uncertain origin, a similar phrase -- "The Earth has its music for those who will listen"—first appeared in print in 1955 in a poem by Reginald Vincent Holmes.) (en)
