	'Education from Colorado State University.';
bio[2] = 'Roy has explored Alaska\'s far regions from the Arctic to the Inside Passage and the remote ' +
	'Pribilof Islands, but admits it would take many lifetimes to experience Alaska\'s vastness.  He ' +
	'homesteaded a 40-acre wilderness parcel in the Brooks Range during the 1970\'s, built his home from ' +
	'logs and explored the surrounding wilderness by dogteam and skis.';
bio[3] = 'In addition to <I>Alaska</I> magazine, Roy\'s photography has appeared in <I>National Geographic</I>, <I>Outside</I>, ' +
	'<I>Forbes FYI</I>, <I>Backpacker</I>, <I>Sports Illustrated for Kids</I>, <I>Alaska Geographic</I>, <I>The Los Angeles Times</I>, <I>National ' +
	'Wildlife</I>, and <I>Nature Conservancy</I> magazines plus other numerous editorial and commercial publications. ' +

	'Oregon/Alaska Northwest Books. A coffee-table presentation book with the same publisher is currently ' +
	'in progress.';
bio[4] = 'The diversity of Roy\'s photographic work is evident in the cultural murals and galleries at the ' +
	'Alaska Native Heritage Center, for which a yearlong project was recently completed portraying the rich ' +
	'traditions of Alaska Native people.  He also recently completed an extensive photographic assignment for ' +

	'and positive thinking. In these small classroom settings, children will learn how to keep personal ' +
	'journals of their own experiences through words and pictures. They will not only learn how to begin ' +
