Anna Laurent is an award-winning photographer, author, and teacher. Through her projects, Anna introduces new audiences to the wonders of the botanical world. Anna has worked as a columnist for Garden Design magazine and Print magazine. Her first book, published in 2016, examines the art and science of plant biology in 19th-century wall charts. Anna’s interest in plants began in college. Years later, her interest prompted her to quit her job and to find a way to get paid to learn about plants.

Did she succeed?

Let’s find out.

ABOUT:

TALATERRA combines "tala" (Icelandic for "to speak" and "to talk") with "terra" (Earth)—because speaking for our planet and telling its stories is what environmental educators do.

TALATERRA: to speak Earth.
