More informationAnna Zemann is an author and storyteller for a New Earth, bringing back the wisdom of nature and reminding us how magical it is to be here. In her books and films, she gives the Earth a voice and inspires a new world where we can reconnect with our wild side.
All her stories are rooted in real places, indigenous wisdom, her own connection with animals and trees, and the question at the heart of her vision:
What if we are not the last generation—
what if we are the first generation of a new era?
Her first book, *You Are Nature*, was published by Kailash at Penguin Random House, followed by a collection on Nature Wisdom, and she is currently working on her first novels—which combine fantasy, ancient indigenous legends, real places on Earth, and her vision of a new generation.
Anna is also the founder of The Old Baobab—a space and school of growth rooted in Nature Wisdom and inspired by a real South African tree that became one of her greatest teachers …
Before becoming Earthgirl, Anna co-founded her own film production company, Arrow Films, in her twenties and spent over a decade writing, creating, and producing award-winning films and documentaries, while developing personal storytelling for public figures and leaders who inspire change for people and the planet. But despite her successful career, she felt increasingly disconnected from herself and the stories she truly wanted to tell—until a trip to Africa changed everything.
After years spent in a world shaped by productivity and performance, in Africa, Anna rediscovered her own wild nature and decided to leave her old life behind—reconnecting with the Earth and bringing to life the vision that had inspired her since childhood: becoming a Storyteller for Earth. And it was also there that she met her tree teacher, The Old Baobab, who taught her everything about true growth on Earth—something that seemed to have been forgotten in the modern world…
Over the years that followed, Anna traveled to wild places around the world, studied indigenous wisdom and ancient teachings, trained in meditation and ritual work, and began creating her own books, films, and stories dedicated to her vision of a New Earth—while “Rewilding Yourself” became a central theme in both her work and personal journey.
Born in Europe, Anna now lives and works between Mexico, Los Angeles, and her hometown, building a life that bridges the wild and the worlds of storytellers, dreamers, and creators.
As a hummingbird-soul and lover of the ocean and the jungle, she spends as much time as possible in nature—sitting by the fire, gazing at the stars, listening to the wind, talking to trees, walking barefoot—while music, poetry, and a deep connection to the cosmos shape both her life and her creative work.
Forever in love with her favorite animals—whales, hummingbirds, and wild cats—she continues to travel to the wild places of the earth and discover its forgotten wonders and magic. Her next big adventure will be swimming with whales in the Pacific Ocean… and, of course, sharing the stories these gentle giants will whisper to her from the deep blue sea…
