Board game designer
"Storytime Keynote"
Celebrated board game designer Elizabeth Hargrave is best known for her award-winning debut title Wingspan, the bestselling bird-collecting game featured in The New York Times and Slate. Previously a health policy analyst, Hargrave saw a gap in the tabletop market, and designed a game with beautiful art and distinctive subjects that would appeal to audiences outside the typical tabletop realm. Hargrave’s games are largely inspired by nature and wildlife. Her latest games include 2023’s fox domesticating experience, The Fox Experiment, and 2024’s fungi-farming adventure, Undergrove.
