“Jasmin Graham has that winning combination of talent and grit needed to excel as a scientist. Every girl who wants to be a marine biologist should have this book.”
—Hope Jahren, New York Times bestselling author of Lab Girl and The Story of More
“Sharks Don’t Sink is a compelling tale of resilience, passion, and the transformative power of empathy and knowledge. Through Graham’s eyes, we not only gain a newfound appreciation for these incredible creatures but also of Graham’s own journey to becoming a voice for the voiceless. Through this remarkable memoir, readers will be inspired to pursue their dreams, defy expectations, and fight for a better, more inclusive future for all.”
—Weike Wang, author of Chemistry and Joan Is Okay
“I reveled in Jasmin Graham’s delightful, irreverent voice. Sharks Don’t Sink is a triumph. Graham’s love of the sharks that she studies, the ocean that draws her, and her sisters in rogue science, illuminates every page.”
—Susan Casey, author of The Underworld: Journeys to the Depths of the Ocean and Voices in the Ocean
“Graham beautifully illustrates her profound connection with sharks and parallels their struggles with those faced by marginalized communities around the world. Graham powerfully underscores the importance of empathy, advocacy, and the recognition of shared experiences in collectively creating a more just and equitable world for all. It’s such a joy to witness Graham’s intelligence, charisma and tenacity shine brightly through her writing.”
—Danni Washington, author of Bold Women in Science
“Graham paints a vivid portrait of a life shaped by the rhythms of the ocean and the resilience of her community. In this book, she confronts the stark reality of a system that values output over wellbeing, advancement over authenticity. Faced with the choice to persevere or depart, Graham embarks on a journey of self-discovery and liberation that leads to the creation of an organization that is changing the very system that prioritizes profit and ‘status quo’ over people. Through her eyes, we glimpse a world where the true measure of wealth lies not in beachfront properties or academic titles but in the enduring bonds of family, community, and a love for the water that knows no bounds.”
—Melissa Cristina Márquez, author of Mother of Sharks and Sea of Constellations
“Jasmin Graham is one of the most influential shark scientists in the world today, and Sharks Don’t Sink should be on every marine biologist’s bookshelf. Her keen scientific mind, sense of humor, and vision for a better world shines through every page.”
—David Shiffman, author of Why Sharks Matter
“Both inspiring and refreshing. A fine celebration of determination in the face of significant professional obstacles.”
—Kirkus Reviews
