Over the past 32 years, Dudley Edmondson has become an established photographer, author, filmmaker, and presenter. His photography has been featured in galleries and publications around the world, most recently in Australia and Italy. In 2006, Dudley set out to create a group of outdoors role models for the nation’s African American community by writing the landmark book Black & Brown Faces in America’s Wild Places. During the Obama Administration, Dudley’s book landed him an invitation to the White House for the signing of America’s Great Outdoors Initiative. Dudley currently lives in Duluth, Minnesota, and serves on the board for the Bell Museum of Natural History, as well as the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council.
