In this episode we have an extraordinary guest whose work has bridged the gap not only between art and science, but also mystery and investigation. Lisa Bailey is a retired Forensic Artist who worked as a Digital Information Specialist for the FBI Laboratory. Working with investigators and Forensic Anthropologists, she worked with unidentified remains, using details about the age, sex, stature and ancestry of the individual in conjunction with a 3D print of their skull to sculpt facial approximations of what these individuals may have looked like, hoping to spark recognition and generate leads from the public.
