From Science Fiction to Poetry

Brenda Cooper has spent her life imagining what the future holds—not just in fiction, but also in fact. As an award-winning author and professional futurist and technologist, she bridges the worlds of data-driven forecasting and storytelling with a focus on where humanity is heading. It’s this shared commitment to the future that connects her work in public futures with the mission of the Center for Science and Imagination.
