In 1946 he studied the effects of the atomic bomb tests on the reef fish of the Bikini Atoll. In 1948 Herald was appointed curator for Aquatic Biology at the Steinhart Aquarium in San Francisco; in 1949 he became director of the aquarium. From 1952 to 1966 Herald moderated the scientific television broadcast 'Science in Action' for the California Academy of Sciences. Herald wrote two books "Living Fishes of the World" and "Fishes of North America" and 93 magazine and technical journal articles.
