The New York Times called her 2020 book, OAK FLAT: A FIGHT FOR SACRED LAND IN THE AMERICAN WEST, “brilliant” and “virtuosic.” She has been a Guggenheim fellow, a fellow at the New York Public Library’s Cullman Center for Scholars & Writers and the New America Foundation. She was the first Artist in Residence at the American Museum of Natural History and teaches at the Parsons School of Design in New York City. According to the New Yorker magazine, “In the world of arts and letters, there isn’t anyone quite like Lauren Redniss.... Reading her work is like poring over the notebooks of a hyper-literate, hyper-curious, and slightly mad artist.”
