Jessica Mann

Jessica Mann is an award-winning writer and naturalist based in Teton Valley, Idaho and Ojai, California. She writes realistic animal fiction to let readers “see” through the eyes of wild birds and animals. Her books weave emotion, science, and mythology together into engaging stories that enchant, educate, and inspire readers of all ages. Through her work, she hopes to build greater understanding and respect for the other creatures with whom we share the planet.

Jessica is a master naturalist, whose prior work included a 35-year career in environmental health before turning to fiction. She has an MPH from the School of Public Health and a BS from the School for Environment from the University of Michigan.
