Gary Braasch, a Nikon Legend, is an assignment photographer for LIFE Magazine, Smithsonian, Audubon, Discover and Natural History magazines covering environment stories. He has been a professional photographer and writer since 1975, and holds a Masters Degree in journalism from Northwestern University. In 1997 he was photographing caribou in the Alaska tundra, waiting for a bush plane to pick him up, and talking with scientists there. They told him about the impacts of climate change they were seeing. Two years later he launched a project, following those and other scientists all over the world, documenting the effects of climate change. He went to Antarctica, to the Peruvian Amazon, and even under the Pacific Ocean. The result of his project is a dramatic book, Earth Under Fire: How Global Warming is Changing the World, released by the University of California Press. He and his friend Lynne Cherry developed How We Know What We Know About Our Changing Climate?for children. This is Gary?s first book with Dawn Publications.
