About Susan Fox Rogers and Contributors

Susan Fox Rogers's lifelong fascination with Antarctica began during her childhood as she listened to her father's stories about the South Pole. Fox Rogers has read nearly everything about Antarctica, and she finally had her chance to live and work on the Ice when she spent six weeks at McMurdo Station as part of The National Science Foundation's Antarctic Artists and Writers Program.

Penguinologist, David Ainley, has made at least 28 trips to Antarctica to study the fate of the Adelie penguins.

Karen Joyce, one of the funniest storytellers on the Ice, has spent sixteen seasons in Antarctica and seems to know just about everything that has and is occurring on the Ice.

Katy Jensen, a scientist sent by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to monitor things that might affect the Earth's atmosphere, has spent more than four years on the Ice, including three winters at the South Pole.
