Autorenporträt

Rodney Fisher's book about Huntley Meadows was inspired by regular visits to this gem of wetlands and forests hidden in the Washington DC suburbs. His love of nature and photography blended seamlessly together when he discovered Huntley Meadows. A pictorial book was a natural result. His photographs and some notable history of Huntley Meadows are featured in his book about this beautiful and unique county park in his local community. In the latest Huntley Meadows photography contest, one of Mr. Fisher's fall landscape photographs was recognized as most evocative representing Huntley Meadows. Mr. Fisher earned degrees from Georgetown University and the University of Mary Washington. He enjoyed a career in public policy in Washington, D.C., both in congress and later with organizations that shaped public policy.
