She is the former food editor for Honolulu Magazine and now writes feature stories for local and national publications on everything from squash farms in Waimea to fly fishing in Maui. Originally from San Francisco, she’s a former pastry chef, line cook, food-truck owner, Peace Corps volunteer, and Google techie. These days, she surfs, eats, and writes. Jeanne Cooper is the former travel editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, for whom she writes frequently about Hawaii. Her stories about the islands have also appeared in other Hearst- owned newspapers, magazines, and websites; Sunset magazine; and Elsewhere, a Sydney media portal. Before helping to relaunch Frommer’s Hawaii, she contributed to guidebooks on San Francisco, Boston, and Washington, D.C., for Fodor’s, Travel & Leisure, and Time Out. A resident of California and the Big Island, she was inspired to study hula by her mother, who lived in Hawai‘i before statehood. Shannon Wianecki has been exploring Hawaii’s hidden treasures since her “small kid” days. She contributes to numerous publications worldwide including Smithsonian, BBC Travel, and Hana Hou!, the Hawaiian Airlines magazine. In 2016, the Hawai‘i Ecotourism Association named her Travel Writer of the Year and she has twice been a finalist for Best Independent Journalist in Hawaii. When she isn’t busy writing about rare plants or fascinating local characters, she’s out looking for them with her four-legged sidekick, Spike. She resides on Maui’s north shore.
