Jessica Steele-Sanders

"Rescue Sirens" creator and co-author Jessica Steele-Sanders grew up in Florida, where her jobs nearly always revolved around water: she helped care for and train dolphins and other marine mammals, went scuba diving with sharks for a living, taught marine conservation education programs, and spent a summer lifeguarding (but if she has a fish tail, she isn’t telling). Today, Jessica lives in the Los Angeles area with her husband and co-author, Chris, and her English shepherd, Brody. “Rescue Sirens: The Search for the Atavist” is her first book.
