Carolyn Jones is a writer and journalist. She was born in Zimbabwe and now lives in the leafy town of Princeton, New Jersey. As a freelance journalist, she covers local climate and environment stories. Before moving east, she was a Texan for a while. She wrote about women’s reproductive rights, gun control, and other testy topics. She won several awards for her journalism, and was honored to have discussed her work with Terry Gross on NPR’s Fresh Air.

When Carolyn’s not chasing local stories or trying & failing to Americanize her accent, she’s hoping to lure birds into her yard with native plants. She’s also working on a novel about climate change.
