Annette LeBox is an award-winning poet and environmental activist who divides her time between Maple Ridge, British Columbia and a remote cabin in the Cariboo grasslands.
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Stephanie Graegin spent her childhood drawing and collecting fauna in Fort Wayne, Indiana and Houston, Texas. Stephanie now lives in Brooklyn, is still drawing, and has managed to keep her collection down to one orange cat.
