Edward A. Richardson (July 10, 1924 – December 19, 2019) was a self-taught tree expert who spent years studying the trees of Connecticut. Richardson, a World War II veteran who made his living in Connecticut's insurance industry, volunteered numerous hours of his time to find, measure and catalog large and interesting trees for the Notable Tree Survey of the Connecticut Botanical Society, which resulted in the publication of Glenn Dreyer's book, "Connecticut's Notable Trees," in 1989. Richardson mapped out the trees in Hartford's Bushnell Park, Institute of Living, Elizabeth Park and Cedar Hill Cemetery. Over the years, Richardson also led numerous tree tours throughout the state of Connecticut.
