Fullerton Arboretum: Little Jewel's Remarkable Journey

Fullerton Arboretum at Cal State Fullerton invites you to meet the author of Little Jewel’s Remarkable Journey, Susanne Strauss during our May plant event.

Strauss is an award-winning nature photographer and educator. She had the wonderful opportunity to observe and photograph hummingbirds that had nested and raised their young in her garden. Her photographs inspired the story of Little Jewel.

Susanne displays her hummingbird photographs at the local library and gives presentations on baby hummingbirds at schools and nature stores. She enjoys traveling to national parks, photographing wildlife, and backyard birding.
