About Michael L. Bowers

I'm 30 years old and currently work as the Science Interpretation Coordinator at Pacific Science Center. I've worked at Pacific Science Center for twelve years, doing everything from live science demonstrations and planetarium shows to leading teen volunteers to developing interactive curriculum for the Discovering the Dead Sea Exhibit of 2006. I'm a graduate of the University of Washington with a BA in Anthropology.

I grew up in Shoreline, Washington, just north of Seattle. I moved into Seattle's city limits for college. There, I learned the joys of personal freedom in the form of public transportation and apartment living. After living for several years happily in Seattle, one day I found myself on the other side of the galaxy on a distant and alien (but oddly familiar) planet.

In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with friends, playing the lap steel guitar, writing, salsa dancing, playing improv games, and painting with oils and acrylics.

I like:

  • Using wrenches to tighten things
  • Eating raspberries off the vine
  • Thick molding
  • The smell of sawdust
  • When people scratch my head
  • Learning
  • Reading outside cafes on overcast days
  • Brick apartment buildings
  • Programming artificial intelligence
  • Trying new foods
  • Going to local theater
  • Taking naps
  • Dandelions


I dislike:

  • Auto-formatting in MS Word
  • Song-playing cell phones
  • Getting nails clipped
  • When the sheet separates from the blanket in the night and I become tangled in it
  • When a room is too cold, especially at night
  • Car alarms
  • Off center sandwich bread or meats
  • When there's a ramp on one curb but not across the street or at the other end of the block
  • TV remotes with buttons that don't work
  • When people carefully capture bugs in their homes and then kill them
  • Burnt toast without butter
  • Sunglasses
