Adam
Werbach, 27, is one of the best-known conservationists of
his generation. Rolling Stone describes him as, "a fixture
on lists of the most influential Americans under 30." Currently,
he's hosting the environmental newsmagazine THIN GREEN LINE,
on the Outdoor Life Network, to tell what he calls, "the greatest
stories never told." His company, founded with former People
Magazine honcho Todd Gold, Act Now Productions, develops digital
TV as well as streaming and downloadable media for leading
sites on the Internet.
When
he was twenty-three, Werbach was elected national President
of the Sierra Club. During his term, the Sierra Club protected
more than 2 million acres of land, passed the strongest clean
air standards ever, and assembled the largest documented Pez
collection in the non-profit world.
A
regular guest on ABC's Politically Incorrect, Werbach has
been featured in publications like the New York Times, People,
LA Times, Newsweek, U.S. News and World Report, New Republic,
Rolling Stone and TIME magazine. But all that matters to his
parents is that he was an answer to a question on Jeopardy.
Werbach's
book, Act Now, Apologize Later, published by Harper-Collins,
has been called a "book, with many pages, and a cool cover,"
by his friend Ben. He double majored at Brown University in
Political Science and Modern Culture and Media. Werbach lives
in San Francisco with his Siamese cat, Icarus.
