Autorenporträt
Carolyn Fry is a journalist and author specialising in science, environment and botanical exploration. She has written/co-authored 11 books including Seeds: Safeguarding our Future (winner of the 2016 Garden Media Guild Environmental Award); Plants: from Roots to Riches (tie-in to the 24-part Radio 4 series of the same name); and The Plant Hunters: The Adventures of the World’s Greatest Botanical Explorers. A former Editor of Geographical, magazine of the Royal Geographical Society, Carolyn has contributed news stories and articles to multiple magazines and national newspapers. Her work has taken her to many far-flung places, including Oman to track humpback whales from a traditional sailing dhow; Zambia, to follow in explorer David Livingstone’s footsteps; Antarctica, to visit the world’s most remote post office; and Argentina, to dig for dinosaurs. Carolyn lives on the south coast of the UK. Emma Wayland is a journalist, writer and editor. Her postgraduate research at Imperial College, London, and in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science, Cambridge, concerned how Victorian gardeners made use of new scientific ideas. She was the Independent on Sunday’s gardening columnist for ten years, and for the last 15 years she has been part of the team of tour guides at Kew interpreting the gardens for visitors. She wrote Darwin’s Dogs (2009) and has been a co-author of two Kew titles,  Plants: from Roots to Riches (2015) and Plant Words (2022).
