Autorenporträt

Penn Clarke is passionate about dolphins, sailing, and travel. He has studied dolphins since a close encounter with three of them in the Bahamas in 1976. Penn is the founder of the non-profit Dolphin Relief and Research. His volunteer efforts include work with scientists studying the health of dolphins on the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf coasts. Penn also gave time alongside researchers working with managed dolphins using sign language and studying their whistles and behaviors. Tacking through life with its joys and trials is made better by the dolphins Penn encounters while living aboard his sailboats for 15 years, traveling around the world four times, taking the Great Loop Trip, and his numerous side trips. Penn continues to revisit longtime friends across the globe. In his writings, he brings together fifty years of daily diaries and a lifetime of memories to share stories like his witness to the 9/11 tragedy, even the collapse of both towers, videoed from his sailboat. There is no sailing straight into the wind. It is changing course, steering into and through the wind - tacking - that keeps Penn and his Mystic Turtle sailboats moving forward. Dolphins & Penn: Tacking Through Life takes you along his journey.
