Stephanie
Mills has written and spoken on ecology and social change since
her Mills College commencement speech in 1969, in which she
announced she would forego having children due to concerns
about overpopulation and its effects on the environment.
Her writings include: Whatever Happened to Ecology? and
In Service of the Wild, a book about restoring and
reinhabiting damaged land. Mills edited In Praise of
Nature, a compilation
of reviews of excerpts of/from major works on environmental
literature; as well as Turning Away from Technology:
A New Vision for the 21st Century, which reflects her choice in
life to be "willfully backward about technology".
Her latest book, Epicurean Simplicity, addresses the rewards
and challenges of a simple life.
Mills lives in northern Michigan, where she works as a freelance
author and lecturer.
"What is perhaps most impressive about Stephanie Mills
is the insistence with which she keeps pointing out the relationship
between our individual choices and the fate of our species
and others with which we share this earth." -Lorraine
