Rachel Carson has been called “the patron saint of the environmental movement.“ She was a marine biologist and zoologist best known for her book Silent Spring, which alerted the world to the dangers of chemical pesticides and launched our modern environmental movement.
The play is the story of one woman’s love for the natural world and her fight to defend it. It is the story of the extremely private Rachel Carson thrust into the role of controversial public figure. It has been the centerpiece of conferences worldwide on conservation, education, journalism, and the environment. A Sense of Wonder has been performed at the Smithsonian Institute, the Albert Schweitzer Conference at the United Nations, the Sierra Club’s Centennial in San Francisco, and at the Department of the Interior’s 150th anniversary celebration. http://www.kaiulanilee.com/sense-of-wonder-film.html
