Kathryn Butler (MD, Columbia University) is a trauma surgeon who left practice at Massachusetts General Hospital to homeschool her kids. She now writes regularly for Desiring God, The Gospel Coalition, and other ministries on the topics of faith, medicine, and the power of stories, and she's authored many books, including the middle-grade series The Dream Keeper Saga. Kathryn lives in the woods in northern Massachusetts with her husband, two kids, and two cats with Beatrix Potter-inspired names. When not writing articles and books out of joy for the Lord, she delights in leisurely hikes, strong coffee, vivid stories, and laughing out loud with her family.
