Award-winning author/artist and adventurer Obi Kaufmann blends science and art to illuminate the array of living, connected systems like no book has done before (California Field Atlas, 2017). Growing up in the East Bay, Kaufmann spent high school practicing calculus and breaking away on weekends to scramble around Mount Diablo and map its creeks and oak forests.

His new book, The State of Fire, studies why fire is essential to the biodiversity of our beautiful state
