The Inside Story
Janice Stiefel, author of "The Inside Story" articles which appeared in past Wild Ones Journals, has passed away. We know not everyone had the privilege to know or meet Janice, but she was a speaker at our Wild Ones conferences and at our regular chapter meetings, as well as a writer for the Journal.
For those of us who were around in the early years of Wild Ones, we remember her for the wonderful articles which appeared in the early version of the Wild Ones newsletter then called The Outside Story. Janice's articles were a regular column entitled "The Inside Story" and covered information about a specific plant, it's characteristics and specialness including medicinal uses and "old wive's tales."
Janice wrote 71 "The Inside Story" articles between 1990 and 2002. Monetary gifts sent in Janice's memory will help Wild Ones publish these articles into a book to share with the rest of the world.
A gifted photographer with a special interest in insects, butterflies and moths, some of Janice's most current work at BugGuide.
