 Growing up in Northern Minnesota around lakes and exploring woods with my dog, I wanted to become a fish and game officer, vowing I’d never be confined to an office. After graduate school, I moved to New York and sat in a cubicle writing advertising copy. For twenty years, I wrote for others, including corporate speeches, early literacy materials and video memoirs for hospice patients. Finally, I was able to write what I was passionate about: mountain lions, dogs and dolphins, and protecting the environment we all live in. If we cannot save our wildlife, we cannot save ourselves.DD Berquist
