Mrs. Derr developed and presented her curricula for science and for gifted children at numerous state and national teachers’ conferences. This motorcyclist, private airplane pilot, and scuba diver, enjoys gardening and nature study. She has previously been active in Boy Scouts and the Civil Air Patrol. Traveling in eighteen countries around the world has given her a desire to see people everywhere discover the science in the Scriptures.

She and her husband, Harry, moved to Waxhaw, North Carolina, in 1999 to volunteer at the JAARS Center, supporting Wycliffe translators. Here she learned the skill of audio recording on computer and is now sharing the vision of vernacular media for oral cultures.
