Beth C. Kantrowitz wrote Run, Sparky, Run! in 2008 to encourage her six-year-old nephew to read. The idea of publishing it was “sparked” when her sister rediscovered the story among her kids’ childhood papers. Beth decided to bring Sparky’s pure and beautiful story to life in 2025 to counter the current dismal state of the world. Beth has an undergraduate degree in biology from Cornell University and two graduate degrees from the University of Maryland: a master of science in sustainable development and conservation biology and a master of public administration in environmental policy. She currently manages grants and contracts for the Environmental Law Institute in Washington, DC. Outside of work, Beth is an avid birder who has served on the board of Prince George’s Audubon Society for the past two decades. She is active in the skeptic, secular, and humanist communities and recently published an article about climate change on Humanist.org. Though Beth is a New York native (and a die-hard fan of the New York Mets), she currently lives in Hyattsville, Maryland, with her dog, Darwin.
