Dan Egan is author of the acclaimed book The Death and Life of the Great Lakes, in which he traces an ecological catastrophe happening right before our eyes, blending the epic story of the Great Lakes with an examination of the perils they face and the ways we can restore and preserve them for generations to come. The book has garnered comparisons to Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring; one reviewer said that “Dan Egan has done more than any other journalist in America to chronicle the decline of this once-great ecosystem.”

For his day job, Egan is a reporter at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, where he has twice been a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize, and a senior water policy fellow at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s School of Freshwater Sciences.

He joined Emily Morris, for an onstage conversation on June 26 in the Chautauqua Amphitheater, during the first week of the 2019 summer assembly season, themed “Moments That Changed the World.” Morris is Chautauqua's vice president of marketing and communications and chief brand officer.
