A dynamic communicator, Michael Runtz is equally at
home in the television or radio studio, lecture hall or classroom. Over
2000 people sign up every year for Michael’s Natural History course.
Televised from Carleton University, this is the most popular course of its
type in Canada. This popularity arises largely from Michael’s infectious
and enthusiastic teaching style, for which he has received excellence in
teaching awards from students and peers alike. He is also in great demand
as a speaker for groups as diverse as outdoor educators, professional
biologists, schoolchildren, and naturalists’ clubs, As well, Michael is a
