In 2005, bestselling fact crime author Cathy Scott (www.cathyscott.com) and Clay Myers (www.focuspointpictures.com) worked together with a top national welfare organization to rescue animals in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina and reunited them with their families. Prompted by their lengthy stays, Cathy wrote the book Pawprints of Katrina and Clay illustrated it with more than 70 photos from the field. Cathy is a prolific writer and author of seven other titles. Her latest true crime book, The Millionaire's Wife, released in March 2012, was a national bestseller. It was awarded No. 3 in True Crime Zine's Top 10 Best True Crime Books of 2012, which was decided by readers. Clay is a former Marine who has a strong sense of comraderie with active-duty troops and veterans. In addition, Clay and Cathy each spent more than a decade working full-time in animal welfare for Best Friends Animal Society's magazine and website, Clay as chief photographer and photo manager and Cathy as senior staff writer. Cathy, who has received dozens of journalism awards in California and Nevada, deployed with the military while a reporter at a daily newspaper to Somalia to cover Operation Restore Hope, experiencing firsthand the dedication of American troops.
