She has written for many publications, including The New York Times, New Scientist, Technology Review\u00a0and the Boston Globe Magazine, and produced television documentaries for PBS, The Discovery Channel, The History Channel and others. Her first book, &#8220;The Day We Lost the H-bomb,&#8221; a narrative nonfiction account of the worst nuclear weapons accident in history, was an Amazon pick of the month when published in 2009, and described as \u201criveting\u201d by the Washington Post.\u00a0She was a Knight Fellow at MIT in 2001-2002, and was twice awarded the National Association of Science Writers\u2019 highest honor, the Science in Society Award.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-reactid=\"222\">When not obsessing about climate change and environmental justice, Moran is a devoted (but inept) yogi, and a competitive (but slow) open water swimmer.
