Cathy Healy, fourth-generation Wyoming advocate, crossed the mountains to see the world as journalist, novelist, magazine editor, and online producer and always returns home.
Cathy is a former editor of Organization of American States’ Américas magazine and National Geographic’s award-winning intranet. She is currently vice president of LU Ranch (Worland, Wyoming) and advisory board member of the International Education and Resource Network (iEARN)-USA, University of Wyoming College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, and World Comes to Wyoming Fund, of which she is the founder.
After Geographic, her life-changing Reuters Digital Vision Fellowship at Stanford University has led to many new adventures, including working with César Chavez Preparatory Charter School in DC on international outreach, lecturing to worldwide audiences about opening borders with digital storytelling, and TED presentations. Her current emphasis is on how students can use video stories to gain deeper understanding of others and other cultures.
Cathy has traveled for work and pleasure to fifty-one countries and savors hosting friends and family in her Washington, DC, home. An Improbable Pioneer is the culmination of her and her father’s vision while working together to transcribe his mother’s letters some years ago. This is Cathy’s third published book.
