 experience as an environmental lawyer with her present work as a rancher to 
 offer a searing, and utterly convincing, indictment of modern meat 
 production. But the book brims with hope, too, and charts a practical (and 
 even beautiful) path out of the jungle." --Michael Pollan, author, 
 Omnivore's Dilemma and In Defense of Food\n\nNicolette Niman PhotoNicolette 
 Hahn Niman is a former attorney, a writer, and a rancher. In addition to 
 working on the ranch, much of her time is spent speaking and writing about 
 the problems resulting from industrialized livestock production, including 
 three essays she has written on the subject for the New York Times and her 
 new book, Righteous Porkchop: Finding a Life and Good Food Beyond Factory 
 Farms. Previously, she was the Senior Attorney for the environmental 
 organization Waterkeeper Alliance where she was in charge of the 
 organization's campaign to reform the concentrated livestock and poultry 
 industry, and, before that, an attorney for National Wildlife Federation. 
 Nicolette served two terms on the city council for the City of Kalamazoo, 
 Michigan (pop. 80,000), during which time she served on sixteen community 
 boards and commissions including the Environmental Concerns Committee. She 
 received her Juris Doctorate, cum laude, from the University of Michigan 
 and her B.A. in Biology and French from Kalamazoo College. She lives in 
 Bolinas, California with her husband, Bill Niman.\n\n\nSee more details and
