Anne Hanson is a doctor of educational leadership whose research study dealt with the psychological syndrome of burnout in the No Child Left Behind's high-stakes testing workplace. A National Board-certified language arts teacher with 20 years of classroom experience, Hanson is a peer evaluator, recognized staff developer, and writing coach for teachers and students. Hanson's awards and recognitions include Arizona Teacher of the Year finalist, Scottsdale Middle School Teacher of the Year, Japan Fulbright Memorial Fund scholar, New York Council for the Humanities scholar, and Arizona State University Martin Luther King, Jr. Spirit Award.
