Meet The Fascinating People Of 2023

By Beth Milligan | March 8, 2023

Activists and artists. Beekeepers and bird-watchers. Chefs and coaches. This week, the Northern Express - sister publication of The Ticker - celebrates the 10th anniversary of its Fascinating People issue. In the issue, you’ll find 20 inspiring individuals whose jobs and passion projects have not only taken them all over northern Michigan, but across the world. (And, for one individual, to outer space…at least via sound waves.)

The people on this year's list covers a fascinating and diverse range of backgrounds, from a water rights activist to a children's book author and illustrator to an extreme videographer. The stories of northern Michigan's most fascinating residents are wide-ranging, surprising, and deeply inspiring. Check them out in this week's Northern Express - available to read online or at one of nearly 700 spots in 14 counties across northern Michigan.
