Tacoma Garden Club looks forward to welcoming Seattle Garden Club members to our Joint Luncheon and Meeting on Wednesday, April 16th at the Tacoma Country and Golf Club. Our speaker will be Amy Stewart, New York Times Best Selling Author of The Drunken Botanist. Amy will speak about her newest book The Tree Collectors, Tales of Arboreal Obsession.
Amy Stewart is the New York Times best-selling author of the The Tree Collectors, The Drunken Botanist, Wicked Plants, and several other popular nonfiction titles about the natural world. She’s also written several novels in her beloved Kopp Sisters series, which are based on the true story of one of America’s first female deputy sheriffs and her two rambunctious sisters.
Her books have sold over a million copies worldwide and have been translated into 18 languages.
She lives in Portland with her husband Scott Brown, a rare book dealer who can usually be found at his shop, Downtown Brown Books.
Amy’s 2009 book Wicked Plants was adapted into a national traveling exhibit that terrified children at science museums nationwide for over a decade. Even better, a few bars around the world are named after The Drunken Botanist.
Amy has won a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship, the American Horticulture Society’s Book Award, the National Outdoor Book Award, and an International Association of Culinary Professionals Food Writing Award.
