Kristen Hall-Geisler is a freelance writer and book editor living in Oregon. As an automotive journalist since 2006, she’s honed her research and interviewing skills with HowStuffWorks, The New York Times, TechCrunch, Popular Science, US News & World Report and more. She loves falling down the rabbit hole of research and emerging with a book or article that others find useful and — she hopes — entertaining while still being based on solid sources. She is the author of the historical novel “Skull and Sidecar” as well as the nonfiction books “Take the Wheel: A Woman’s Guide to Buying a Car Her Own Damn Self” and “Lightning in a Throttle: Three Early Electric Vehicle Victories.”
