Acerca de los autores

Author Maureen "Micki" Carroll had never tried to herd cats before setting out to coordinate the work of seventeen other Kansas and Missouri artists for the book, The Tree Who Walked Through Time - A Tree Identification Story, and to reach their goal of raising $25,000 for children's art education, but she has never known the meaning of the word "can't." Carroll is a writer of books and articles, including a series on diversity. She researches and writes historical non-fiction and historical fiction, inspirational books, and children's books. Carroll is also a business writer creating courses, workshops, and programs for business and community leaders. You can find out more about Micki's business writing experience at: HCap International. A lover of rocks and trees since she was a little girl climbing in the Colorado Rockies, Maureen has worn many hats over the years, including linguist and cultural anthropologist, mom, public speaker, gluten-free cook, teacher, photographer, writer, graphic designer, and all-around Seeker of Truth. Maureen graduated from the University of Kansas and has taught conflict management classes throughout the United States and Great Britain. She enjoys reading, researching, and writing about quantum mechanics.
