Mireya Mayor

Pink Boots and a Machete: My Journey From NFL Cheerleader to National Geographic Explorer (National Geographic, $26.00) is Mireya Mayor's empowering autobiography detailing how she evolved from a "girly girl" daughter of overprotective Cuban immigrants and NFL cheerleader to Fulbright Scholar to field scientist and ultimately, quintessential adventurer.  "Entertaining reading for the intrepid at heart," says Kirkus Reviews.  Mayor is currently a host on Nat Geo WILD! channel with her own series “Wild Nights with Mireya Mayor.”
