New American Naturalist editorial staff

Since Trish Morse retired in October 2020, Owen Cook has heroically managed all of the parts of The American Naturalist's editorial office solo. This includes checking incoming manuscripts for compliance, contacting Associate Editors picked by the Editors to handle a paper, and contacting reviewers for the AEs, sending reminders about overdue reviews and recommendation letters, responding to author queries, checking manuscript files and giving feedback on figure formatting, and much much more. He has truly been doing two jobs for the past year. Thanks Owen!

Luckily we now have been able to recruit two part-time helpers to assist Owen. Please extend a warm welcome to:
