Lynn Scarlett knows her way around the nation's wildlife refuges. Now, the former deputy Interior secretary will see them in a new light, as chair of the National Wildlife Refuge Association's board of directors.

A self-described birder and avid hiker, Scarlett has served several stints as a board member of the association. She retired in December 2021 as global chief external affairs officer at The Nature Conservancy.
