Madeleine Fritz Hooper, PhD

Madeleine gives us a glimpse of her interactions with Nature through recalling her time as a child loving horses, taking adventures as a college student, and reflecting on the gifts of her father from that she treasures.
At the end of the episode, Madeleine's Great Pyrenees does a trick that causes her to speak to him.
