About
Lucy Soucek is a senior producer at KUOW. She helped launch and now produces Booming, a podcast about the economic forces shaping our lives here in the Pacific Northwest. She also produces THE WILD with Chris Morgan, a podcast about the wonder and resilience of nature.
She's trudged through waist-deep sawgrass looking for pythons, waded through rivers in Alaska, and recorded fish sounds in the deep caves of Death Valley.
