Autorenporträt
Mya Thompson, PhD, is an author, a biologist, and a bird nerd. As Co-Director of Engagement in Science and Nature at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, she helps people learn more about birds. Before getting hooked on feathered animals, she studied elephant behavior in central Africa. She is the author of the book Ruby's Birds and producer of the games Flap to the Future and BeastBox. Mya lives with her husband and kids in upstate New York and is totally in awe of people who can draw, like Virginia Greene. Virginia Greene is an artist, a biologist, and a park ranger. She has followed a love of birds and nature though a variety of occupations, including an M.S. in Biology from William and Mary, a stint as the Bartels Illustrator at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and a year of Americorps service with Virginia State Parks. When she is outside, she is either looking up for birds or down for mushrooms, with a sketchbook at the ready. Virginia lives in the mountains of Virginia and is grateful for those who have devoted their lives to birds and public education, like writer Mya Thompson.
