2003 California State Science Fair Pictures

This page is a work in progress. There are more pictures which have yet to be added to this page, and pictures which are on this page, but have yet to be annotated. If you can identify people in any photograph who are not named in the caption, please let us know with the link provided on that page, or send e-mail to CalifSF@usc.edu.

Do you have photographs of your time at the Fair? We welcome photographs from participants, especially since our photographer could not be in all places at all times. Please let us know and we may add your photos to the collection below.

An index of all presently identified persons has been constructed. The index is available here, even though it is not yet completed. Also, for special purposes, higher resolution versions of the pictures listed below can be made available, but are not posted on this Web site.

The order of the photographs given below is intended to be approximately chronological.
