Do you have important, complicated ideas to share? The MHC Group can help.

We specialize in transforming jargon, acronyms, and fine print into materials that are clear, clean and useful.

We’ve made everything from podcasts to government reports, all with the aim of making information more accessible.

She is the author of The Rarest of the Rare (HarperCollins/ Scala Arts), which tells the stories behind the natural history museum at Harvard.

In her book Curious Footprints (Amherst College Press), she reveals how Prof. Edward Hitchcock amassed Amherst College’s world-class collection of dinosaur tracks. Strangely enough, he did not believe they were made by dinosaurs.
