BIOGRAPHIES
Locker, Thomas

The Man Who Paints Nature

(3) K-3 Meet the Author series. Photographs by Tim Holmstrom. These autobiographies place special emphasis on motivation: Adler's own interests and those of his family provide the creative spark for his fiction and nonfiction; Bruchac's pride in his Native American heritage informs his writing; and painter/author Locker's respect for nature inspires his stories. Recent and archival photographs and simple but artful prose convey everything from these writers' childhood dilemmas to their artistic frustrations.
