About this speaker
Kerry-Ann Lecky Hepburn is a senior meteorologist for The Weather Network, a 24-hour national TV station in Canada.
As much as she enjoys the weather, Kerry-Ann also has a long-standing love for astronomy and photography that started when she was a child. After getting her first telescope and SLR film camera in her early teens, she was hooked. In her university years, she volunteered at the astronomical observatory where she aided in public tours, observing sessions and research that included deep sky astrophotography. Over the past few decades, she has honed her skills in post-processing deep sky and Milky Way images under light-polluted skies.
Kerry-Ann’s work has ended up winning awards and has been featured numerous times in science textbooks, astronomy-related calendars and magazines, as well as online publications such as Sky & Telescope, Sky News, and NASA APOD. She enjoys sharing her knowledge by doing speaking engagements and workshops.
