Cricket Eccleston Hunter has degrees in biology and education and has been both a middle school science teacher and a recruiter for Teach for America. She is a member of Grace Lutheran Church in State College, where she resides with her husband and two daughters. Cricket has been with PA IPL for over a year now. In her own words: “PA IPL represents, for me, an integration of the science that has long interested and concerned me with a faith-based imperative to care for the earth and (perhaps even more urgently) for our poorer brothers and sisters: those who inevitably bear the brunt of our human experiment in constantly expanding consumption.” See Cricket’s recent op-ed here.
