After publishing my book 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles of Washington D.C., my co-author Rachel Cooper and I were recognized as authorities on hiking in the Greater Washington D.C. region. We were asked by the Smithsonian Associates to lead history/hiking tours and were featured speakers for the Smithsonian Associates Author Series.

My recently published book, The Unofficial Guide to Washington DC, offers thorough advice on the best historic sites, hotels, restaurants, recreational opportunities, shopping, museums and more. I would love to speak to your group about how to fully enjoy all the attractions and parks in the Washington Area.

Speaking and Podcasts

My work as an instructor for Smithsonian has allowed me to expand my background to become a contributor to the Explore the World and Not Old Better podcasts as well as other interesting projects. Please invite me to speak to your group! reneesklarew@msn.com
