Chris Spatz

Chris Spatz, inspired by Dave Foreman announcing the birth of Earth First! on The Today Show in the early '80s, procured a copy of Eco Defense and began his peripatetic pursuits as an eco-gadfly. Yanking surveying stakes, canvassing for Greenpeace in Boston, performing with Trenton, NJ's Klark Kent eco-street theater troupe, directing the Gunks' Climbers Coalition, and advocating for puma recovery as president of the Cougar Rewilding Foundation were some of his ventures. He lives and writes from the Shawangunks in southern New York State.
