Critterman
is just one of the alter-egos of Denny Olson, who for more than
27 years has been a student and teacher of the natural world.
Well-known nationwide for for his theatrical performances and
speeches, Denny strongly believes in encouraging children and
adults to think about how nature and people are connected. Denny
has written books on cougars, deer, "place-based" education
and Native American stories. His performances include Critterman,
Professor Avian Guano, Dr. Death, The Lost Voyageur, and Doctor
Loonacy. As one unsuspecting victim of Denny's performances put
it, "I didn't realize I learned so much until it was too
late!"
