California State Science Fair
2009 Pictures

[bar]

This page is a work in progress. As of today (see timestamp at the bottom of this page) we have 468 distinct photos linked from this page, in addition to 945 portaits of students present at the Fair. We still have several hundred more photographs which will be added to this site over the next few weeks.

Current Status of Photographs
All portraits are posted.
All awards presentations are posted.
All judging interview period photos are posted.
Photos from all three ceremonies are in process.

Can you help us? If, in any photograph below, you can identify people who are not named in the accompanying 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 photographers could not be in all places at all times. Please let us know so we can add your photos to the collection below.

Quick Reference to All Photographs
All participants organized by panel
All participants alphabetically

The order of the photographs given below is intended to be approximately chronological. Photographs during the judging interview period are ordered geographically. For organizational purposes, photographs from both Awards Ceremonies are presented here as if there were only a single common ceremony. That's why you don't remember seeing about half of those awards being presented.

All links below show photos in a “small” 400 by 600 pixel (or 600 by 400) format. However, many photos have a higher resolution image available. All on-stage presentations have this higher resolution image available simply by clicking on the photos. Some of the other “small” pictures (the ones marked with “*” in the list below) have higher resolution images accessible with one click as well. Please be patient if you click on such images as it will take some time for them to download. The largest images are a few megabytes in size.

Monday: Keynote Address

These photos will be added after all interview period pictures have been posted.

Tuesday: Student Orientation

Views of the Audience
Welcome from Ron Rohovit, California Science Center
Recognizing 5-, 6-, and 7-Year Participants
