After
earning her master's degree from the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental
Studies, Kate Troll began a career in Alaskan resource management
in 1977. She was the first person to introduce coastal zone management
to 'Bush Alaska.' For seven years she represented commercial fishing
in the tumultuous world of 'fish politics.' Over the course of her
career, she served on the first State Board of Forestry, taught at
the University of Alaska Southeast, served as a local elected official,
and held several resource policy positions with the State of Alaska.
She is currently the Fishery Manager for North and South America for
the Marine Stewardship Council, a nonprofit organization dedicated
to sustainable fishing certification. As the author of the recently
published book 
(Xlibris), Troll explains how environmental protection
and economic health can be made mutually reinforcing. She speaks on
the nine key principles needed to bring together economic and environmental
goals and on the lessons learned from her more than two decades of
experience managing forestry and fishery resources in Alaska and the
North Pacific.
