About

Ash Sanders is a journalist and podcast producer who covers both religion and the environment (and sometimes, when she's feeling multi-tasky, religion and the environment). Her writing has appeared in Stitcher, Rolling Stone, The Believer, Narratively, NPR's The Salt, and Buzzfeed, as well as the climate anthology, All We Can Save. As a proud Utahn and recovering ex-Mormon, Ash has used her insider knowledge to delve into everything from the strange world of Mormon survivalist food to LDS dance propaganda films and fundamentalist towns in transition. She received her MFA in creative writing at NYU and is currently working on a book about religion, climate change, and the end of the world, as well as a podcast where she will attempt to raft the entire, 1,450-mile Colorado River to tell the story of the water crisis in the West.
