  About the author
  An herbalist for over 15 years, Colleen K. Dodt has written two Storey titles, The Essential Oils Book and Natural Baby Care, of which USDA Scientist James A.

As always, Colleen writes engagingly and earnestly." Colleen is the owner of Herbal Endeavors, Ltd., in Rochester Hills, Michigan, a business she began years ago at her home so that she could raise her young daughter, Christina, full time. Since then, her business and products have been featured in Herb Companion magazine, and she has written numerous articles on herbs and aromatherapy as well. Colleen is the first American and the first woman to write for The International Journal of Aromatherapy (February 1988), a British trade publication edited by Robert Tisserand, one of Britain's foremost experts on herbs and essential oils.
