A lifetime of experience as a magazine and newspaper writer and photographer, radio and television news producer and reporter, and guidebook author and editor, focusing on travel, automotive, lifestyle, and the environment. My articles have taken me to some 100 countries – one of these days I have to do a real country count. I’ve been lucky enough to do the things I love — skiing, scuba diving, hiking — and write about them. Lucky to experience and write about the destinations on the ‘bucket lists’ of many of us, and lucky test-drive sportscars that others of us dream about. I’ve been writing about the environment since long before it was fashionable.
