About
Leslie Sobel's work focuses on the environment, specifically on climate change and water. She has partnered with scientists in wilderness settings on several occasions and makes much of her work based in her experiences in remote places. In 2017 she camped on a glacier with a group of climate scientists in Yukon Territory. She did a month long wilderness based residency sponsored by Colorado Art Ranch and the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute at Canyons of the Ancients National Monument in SW Colorado in 2013. She is an avid hiker whose connection with the outdoors is crucial to her work. Sobel is married and has three young adult children. She has lived in southeast Michigan for more than 30 years and grew up in Chicago. Full resume here
