David Luneau has, to date during the Arkansas search, captured the best video of the ivory-billed woodpecker. A professor of electronics and computers at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, Luneau, during the winter 2004/05 search, was in charge of the effort to capture an image of an ivory-bill using remote cameras, and he served as an advisor in other technical areas.
Luneau was a member of the six-person Zeiss Sports Optics search team that spent a month in 2002 looking for ivory-billed woodpeckers in the Pearl River Wildlife Management Area in Louisiana. David had already visited that area twice and spent considerable time searching it.
With support from the Arkansas Audubon Society Trust, he organized and led a less extended expedition in January of 2003 to look for ivory-bills in the White River National Wildlife Refuge in southeast Arkansas.
Luneau, a native of Pine Bluff, Arkansas, resides in Little Rock. Luneau holds a B.S. in electrical engineering from Rice University, and a M.S. in electrical engineering from Georgia Tech University.
