Bruce Smith is a wildlife biologist who holds a PhD in Zoology. During his career with the federal government, he studied and managed most large mammal species that roam the western United States.
He's authored five nonfiction books of natural history, conservation, and outdoor adventure.
He spent three years studying mountain goats in Montana's Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness Area - and
many days afield with binoculars and camera since - which provided an enduring affection for the subject of
Life on the Rocks: A Portrait of the Mountain Goat, winner of the National Outdoor Book Award.
Legend Keepers: The Chosen One, received a Feathered Quill Silver Medal Award in two categories!
Bruce and his wife, Diana, live in southwest Montana not far from mountain goats.
