Montreal-born Mairuth Hodge Sarsfield evolved from journalist into research writer and on-camera host (CBC, CTV, and TVO). During a major chunk of her professional career as an information officer, she enlivened topics ranging from U.N. Law of the Sea and Expo '70, Japan, to sustainable development of the earth's resources, earning awards and recognition for her creativity. Now, with two more books underway, Sarsfield divides her talent between public readings and her typewriter.
