Firefly Song: Lynn Frierson Faust and The Great Smoky Mountain Discovery

Lynn spends her childhood summers roaming the forests of the Great Smoky Mountains and watching the fireflies light up the night. As an adult, she realizes there’s something special about these Smoky Mountain fireflies––they perform a dazzling synchronized light show! Lynn is not a scientist, but she wonders like a scientist. She pays attention like a scientist. With determination and hard work, she sets out to convince the scientific community that synchronous fireflies exist where no one has found them before.
