Biography
Based in Seattle, Wash., Glenn Nelson is the founder of The Trail Posse, which regularly covers race, diversity and inclusion in the outdoors. He also is a founding member of the Next 100 Coalition, a national alliance of organizations of color advocating for equal access to public lands. Nelson has won several national awards for his writing, photography and web publishing — most recently, second place for Outstanding Beat Reporting (Race, Inclusion and Environmental Justice) by the Society of Environmental Journalists. A graduate of Seattle University and Columbia University, he was born in Japan and started his career at The Seattle Times. He later founded HoopGurlz (now at ESPN), which covered girl’s basketball and college prospects nationally, and helped found *Scout.com*, a network of sports websites. The primary author of a teen book about the NBA, Nelson has been published in numerous magazines and book collections, had his photographic work appear at the Smithsonian, and has been profiled by NPR. He also serves on the boards of Audubon Washington, Confluence Project and Friends of the Waterfront, as well as the Washington Governor’s advisory committee on outdoor recreation.

The cover is an homage to the red fox known to many as “Eclipse,” who was struck by a car and killed this past year at San Juan Island National Historical Park. Eclipse graced the cover of last year’s calendar, as well as my Pacific Northwest Magazine story and photos for The Seattle Times.

I’d forgotten to tell my middle-school basketball club team that we’d have a special visitor that evening. Early in the session, one of my players sidled up to me and in a loud whisper made an observation in the insensitive way young people sometimes do.
