David Chorlton is an Austrian-born, English-raised, thirty-year-resident of Phoenix, having spent his early years in industrial Manchester and cultural Vienna. In Arizona he has become ever more fascinated by nature and the desert and his work has, in part, reflected on this. Among his books are The Porous Desert (FutureCycle Press) and Waiting for the Quetzal (March Street Press), which contain much of the desert and a taste of rainforest.
