Author talk with Amy Pearson

She grew up on a farm in northcentral MT and earned a Ph.D. in organizational communication from Arizona State University. After finishing her formal education, she hit the road to Asia for a few years, but found herself missing the mountains of Montana.

Her newest book is dedicated to her Grandma Harriet, who was also a poet.
