About Stan Bogosian:
Stan Bogosian was born in San Jose, California in 1952. He has been a serious field collector since 1990, and has travelled throughout the western United States in search of fine mineral specimens and lapidary material. His current interest is micro-minerals, although he has an extensive collection of rocks and minerals of all sizes, including polished rounds of Miocene petrified wood he collected in Eastern Washington.
Stan graduated from Eastern Washington University, Cheney, Washington, in 1978 with a Bachelor’s in Education. After teaching high school for several years in Washington and California, Stan worked as a manager in the private sector until his retirement in 2013.
