Sandra Younger lost her home, twelve neighbors, and almost her own life in the 2003 Cedar Fire–-for fourteen years the biggest wildfire in modern California history and a bellwether of today's extreme climate-driven wildfire catastrophes.
A powerful storyteller and veteran magazine journalist, Sandra felt compelled to capture the Cedar Fire story for posterity, documenting the event from the perspectives of both the firefighters battling the fire and the public caught in its path. First published in 2013, The Fire Outside My Window has been hailed as required reading for residents of wildfire country, adopted as a training text for top-level emergency professionals, and featured by national media.
Sandra is also an international speaker and certified professional coach, dedicated to inspiring resilience and potential. She and her husband, Bob, live near San Diego in Wildcat Canyon, the area worst hit by the Cedar Fire. They share two daughters, two sons-in-law, and three grandchildren, plus assorted Newfoundland dogs.
