Today would have been Karen Pryor’s birthday. Karen was not only a visionary thinker but also an incredibly talented writer, breaking complex ideas into easy-to-understand pieces, all with her trademark humor, clarity, and joy. It’s nearly impossible to read one of her letters without smiling. She changed the way we learn, communicate, and grow, with animals and each other. We are deeply grateful today, and every day, for the lasting impact she’s had on all of us.
