Susi Pittman grew up in Miami, Florida, in a home that wasn't particularly religious. Therefore, her family was surprised when eight-year-old Pittman declared that she was going to become Catholic. At an early age, she knew God had a purpose for her. Always an animal lover, Pittman saw a specific calling for a book about whether or not animals go to heaven in a chance meeting with a small rabbit.

Pittman is also the founder of the interactive website www.catholicStewardsofCreation.com for those who love animals and ecology to gather and take action to protect creation. As a devout Catholic and steward of creation, Pittman is a committed conservationist and spends her time on ecological and animal issues.

She serves as an advocate for the Florida Catholic Conference. Previously, Pittman worked as an on-air personality for WQPD-FM, as well as a feature writer and photographer for a New York Times subsidiary. Pittman resides in St. Augustine, FL. (near Jacksonville) with her daughter, son-in-law, two grandchildren and 14 rescued animals.
