Autorenporträt
Karen Cumming is a broadcast journalist, author, freelance writer and teacher who loves to laugh, speak, write, travel and explore. This Wealthy Martian worked in radio and television news in Montreal, Edmonton, Toronto and Hamilton for twenty-five years. She produced features for the OBS network at the London 2012 Olympic Games and has written travel and human-interest stories for major-market newspapers and magazines including The Toronto Star, The Hamilton Spectator, Oxygen, More, Investment Executive and Costco Connection. Karen's career in education took her to a dozen secondary schools in Ontario, Canada. Thanks to her work on the front lines, she learned a lot about what we aren't teaching our children. That experience gave birth to this book-her second non-fiction title. Her first, The Indispensable Survival Guide to Ontario's Long-term Care System (created with her sister, Patricia Milne) debuted in 2019. Not surprisingly, Karen continues to dream about a life on Mars.
