Random Nature
I'm Christy Hyman and I am a geographer who loves birds and the outdoors. I talk to academics about how they view nature and how much or how little they embrace it into their lives.

Episode 3
Part activist, part administrator, and part academic,” Anna Sims Bartel earned her Ph.D. in Comparative Literature at Cornell University. She runs her own consulting firm and enjoys doing public humanities work as well helps drive the development of community-engagement centers in higher ed. She is someone who became a fast friend when I moved to Ithaca in July 2023.
Anna enjoys the things that support chronic hope: the chaos of her young family; being in, on, or near moving water; the smell of dirt and the good things that grow in it.
Pick up "The Scholar as Human" which Anna co-edited with Debra A. Castillo too.
