She’s also edited and contributed to more than a dozen other guidebooks for Michelin and Fodor’s.About Travel:
I got the travel bug when my husband and I eloped to Europe and we wound up backpacking all the way to Africa and the Middle East for our honeymoon. The bug still infects me, and I’m extremely lucky to be able to indulge my passion for travel, especially skiing, scuba diving, and prowling historic and cultural sites like Macchu Pichu and writing about them.About Cars:
My interest in cars is more from the perspective of safety, value, and environment. But through writing about new technology I’ve developed an appreciation for vintage and antique cars and roaring around a test track, too. Since you can rarely travel without driving, or drive without traveling, it’s a perfect combination of subjects for a freelance writer like me.Education:
Evelyn holds a Bachelor of Journalism degree from the University of Missouri School of Journalism.Organizations:
Evelyn is a board member of the Society of American Travel Writers. She also belongs to the International Motor Press Association, North American Ski/Snowboard Journalists Association, and The Authors Guild.Contact Information:
