The remarkable story of California’s iconic redwoods is captured in The Once and Future Forest, a stunning book which commemorates the 100th anniversary of Save the Redwoods League. The collection includes fascinating and thoughtful essays discussing science, conservation, history, landscape and identity, as well as evocative poetry and breathtaking photography – all of which showcase the grandeur of the redwood ecosystems and the deep love and awe they have engendered.

Her work has appeared in Orion, Parabola, Reflections, Free State Review, and Canary, and has been supported by the Foundation for Deep Ecology, and the Mesa Refuge.
