The public is invited to join the White Salmon Valley Community Library's Saturday afternoon Book Discussion Group on Saturday, April 11, at 1 p.m. for the discussion of Sky Time in Gray's River: Living for Keeps in a Forgotten Place with the author, Robert Michael Pyle.
Pyle is a lepidopterist and a professional writer who has published 12 books and hundreds of papers, essays, stories and poems. He has a doctorate from the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies at Yale University.
Contemporary Authors describes Pyle as "a highly-regarded author whose works combine scholarly knowledge of the natural worked with a writer's eye for description, anecdote, and adventure."
Pyle, a veteran columnist for "Orion" magazine, is best known for his work on butterflies, especially the Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Butterflies. Other titles include: Wintergreen: Rambles in a Ravaged Land (essays); Where Bigfoot Walks: Crossing the Dark Divide; Chasing Monarchs: A Migration with the Butterflies of Passage.
He has been the recipient of numerous awards including: a Fulbright fellow; three Governor's Writers Awards; two Pacific Northwest Bookseller Association Awards; a Guggenheim fellow; and the National Outdoor Book Award in 2007.
