Katrina O. Voss is a science writer and former bilingual broadcast meteorologist for The Weather Channel Latin America and AccuWeather. ^[1] She is a science and research writer at Penn State’s Eberly College of Science ^[2] and has contributed to a number of scientific journals and magazines, including New Scientist, ^[3] The Humanist, ^[4] Free Inquiry, ^[5] and Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society. ^[6] In 2006, in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, she wrote about the psychological effects of sharing a name with a hurricane, pointing out that the majority, if not all, of hurricanes had been named after women. ^{[7] [8] [9] [10]}

Voss holds an AMS Seal ^[11] and questioned the organization's decision to replace the program with the Certified Broadcast Meteorologist Seal rather than leaning into the benefits of having broadcasters of wider educational backgrounds. ^[12] In an August 2009 issue of the New Scientist, ^[3] she advised people to "stop being precious" over their DNA. ^{[13] [14]} She and her husband, anthropologist and geneticist Mark D. Shriver, ^[15] collaborated on a SciVee series called Reading Between the Genes. ^[16] Voss holds a bachelor's degree in Spanish literature and geosciences and meteorology. ^[17]
