Frommer's Hawaii 2024: Complete Guide

Jeanne Cooper grew up listening to songs and stories of Hawaii from her mother, who lived in Oahu as a teen. She began writing about Hawaii and its diverse cultures for the San Francisco Chronicle and SFGate.com in 2002. Her travel stories have also been published in numerous U.S. and international newspapers, magazines, and websites.  She lives on Hawaii Island with her triathlete husband, two mutts, and two cats and always enjoys learning about more about Hawaii’s lovely islands with visiting family and friends.

Natalie Schack is a writer and editor lucky enough to be born and raised on the island of Oahu. Her work has appeared in HONOLULU Magazine, Curbed, Hawaii Business Magazine, Green Magazine, Hana Hou!, Flux Magazine, and many more. When she's not penning articles about the many marvelous facets of Hawaii's unique culture, food, art, and business scene, you'll find her rambling through the Koolau Mountains, swimming Oahu's south shores, and enjoying Honolulu city life with her husband and young son.
