Julianne Warren is a freelance writer, storyteller and organizer with degrees in music, linguistics, and a PhD in wildlife ecology. Her creative pieces, including sound arts, continue exploring what it is to be/come in good relation. These appear in a variety of venues including, Newfound, Minding Nature, Zoomorphic, The Poetry Lab of The Merwin Conservancy, Lost and Found Theatrum Anatomicum, and The Deutsches Museum as well as in several book collections and live presentations. Julianne authored an intellectual biography, Aldo Leopold’s Odyssey, developing this influential conservationist’s ‘land health’ concept. Her current personal-professional work, centered by Indigenous colleagues’ insights, looks back to take responsibility for that complicity and looks forward with commitment to anti-racist and decolonizing alternative futures. Julianne acknowledges the many gifts of educational labor and expert knowledges shared by members of the Gwich’in Steering Committee and Native Movement. While living far north, she served for two years with an allied grassroots group, Fairbanks Climate Action Coalition, as a council member and co-facilitator of #KeepItIntheGround! working group.
