In Berkeley: NatGeo Society photography fellow talks about his breathtaking new book
Before his Feb. 1 appearance at the David Brower Center, we talked to Joe Riis, as well as a contributor to his new book, UC Berkeley's Arthur Middleton.
Elaine Miller Bond is an author and photographer whose work celebrates the natural world. She is the author/photographer of Running Wild and Living Wild, lively children’s board books from Heyday Books in Berkeley. She is also the photographer of The Utah Prairie Dog, a scientific book by Theodore Manno. Her writing and photography have appeared on the Discovery Channel and in Science, BBC Earth News, NPR online, and her favorite local news site, Berkeleyside. One of her recent Berkeleyside photo-essays, about monarch butterflies, went “viral” and was shared 21,000 times on Facebook. Another photo-essay, Sweetness & Light: Diary of a Hummingbird’s Nest, has been adapted into a children’s book, forthcoming from Heyday Books. See her website.
