In the course of my writing career, I've developed an expertise in communicating scientific concepts and developments (in biology, paleontology, cosmology, and medicine, among other fields) to adults and kids alike. I've been fascinated by dinosaurs and animals since preschool, when I acquired my first dinosaur figurine (a T. Rex, of course)--and over the next few years I amassed a collection of at least 100 more, which were mysteriously misplaced by my mom when my room began to resemble the set of One Million Years B.C.
