After earning several college degrees and making countless discoveries, Eugenie wrote herself into the history of science, earning the nickname 'Shark Lady.' Through her accomplishments, she taught the world that sharks were to be admired rather than feared and that women can do anything they set their minds to.

Jess is giving away a copy of SHARK LADY to one lucky blog reader. Jess lives in Ontario, Canada, where she loves nerdy documentaries, hiking, and writing books for adventurous and funny kids. But Eugenie quickly discovered that many people believed sharks to be ugly and scary - and they didn't think women should be scientists.ĭetermined to prove them wrong, Eugenie devoted her life to learning about sharks. You can also check out her ‘Write with Jess Keating’ video series, geared towards inspiring young writers in the classroom.
