Marty Essen began writing professionally in the 1990s as a features writer for Gig Magazine. His first book, Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents, won six national awards, and the Minneapolis Star-Tribune named it a “Top Ten Green Book.” His second book, Endangered Edens: Exploring the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Costa Rica, the Everglades, and Puerto Rico, won four national awards. His novels, Time Is Irreverent, Time Is Irreverent 2: Jesus Christ, Not Again! and Time Is Irreverent 3: Gone for 16 Seconds, all became Amazon #1 Best-Sellers in multiple categories. Hits, Heathens, and Hippos: Stories from an Agent, Activist, and Adventurer is Marty’s inspirational and entertaining memoir, and like all his books, it reflects his values of protecting human rights and the environment—and does so with a wry sense of humor. Doctor Refurb is Marty’s seventh—and most controversial—book. Marty is also a popular college speaker, who has performed the stage-show version of Cool Creatures, Hot Planet on hundreds of campuses in forty-five states.
