What does this mean?
That her historian helped the story along? We have her own words for that:

This main article photo shows Bruce Hezeen in a pose suggesting he's instructing Marie Tharp. Although Hezeen was very important in providing support to Tharp, she brought the vision and the persistence to prove the existence of the Mid Atlantic Rift. Hezeen was no more important than any of the 20 or so women who worked alongside Tharp.
May I suggest a photo where Tharp stands alone? Perhaps photographer Bruce Gilbert will give permission to use a beautiful 2001 shot on Columbia University's website?

Or another photo could be selected. With a campaign on women scientists in STEM (#WomenInSTEM) trending on Twitter so we can make girls feel they have a future in the sciences, a less patriarchal cover photo for this article is in order. 96.27.104.7 ( talk) 04:18, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
Please change the photo. I don't have an account and I'm incompetent to edit Wiki, but that photo has got to go. It's patronizing, and she's a feminist icon.

This Marie Tharp page was mentioned in a 2015 New Statesman article on Gender bias in Wikipedia. Including citation here in case it is notable. https://www.newstatesman.com/lifestyle/2015/05/wikipedia-has-colossal-problem-women-dont-edit-it SunnyBoi SunnyBoi ( talk) 12:36, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
FYI, I've just replaced the image used in the infobox of this article. The photo it replaces, File:Tharp & Heezen.jpg, is likewise a non-free photo, and has a couple problems as people have noted elsewhere on this talk page. For one, it's a profile that actually shows less of the subject. Second, the image appears to be Heezen teaching Tharp about the map as though the map isn't her work. Seems like a fine image for his article, where it is still used, but there's this great image of her that's better in both respects. Thanks to Akgcd523 for identifying the opportunity and the better image. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:07, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
The image used at present is fair use. We have "Marie Tharp working with fathometer record (cropped).jpg" image of her, this is not contentious and it is free to use. Marie Tharp's estate needs to give permission for us to use their image, which I agree is much better. Victuallers ( talk) 13:58, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
Hi everyone!
I was wondering if there is any missing topic in Mary Tharp biography that really needs to be covered.
