Anna Laurent is an award-winning photographer, author, and teacher. Through her projects, Anna introduces new audiences to the wonders of the botanical world. Anna has worked as a columnist for Garden Design magazine and Print magazine. Her first book, published in 2016, examines the art and science of plant biology in 19th-century wall charts. Anna’s interest in plants began in college. Years later, her interest prompted her to quit her job and to find a way to get paid to learn about plants.

Did she succeed?

Let’s find out.

TALATERRA combines "tala" (Icelandic for "to speak" and "to talk") with "terra" (Earth)—because speaking for our planet and telling its stories is what environmental educators do.

TALATERRA: to speak Earth.
