In 2002, Philip Connors left the Wall Street Journal for a seasonal job with the U.S. Forest Service in New Mexico. That became the subject of his first book, Fire Season: Field Notes From a Wilderness Lookout, which Amazon named the best nature book of 2011 and which won a National Outdoor Book Award, the Sigurd Olson Nature Writing Award, the Reading the West Award for Nonfiction, and the Grand Prize at the Banff Mountain Book Competition. His second book, All the Wrong Places, recounts his life in the shadow of his brother's suicide and was named one of the best nonfiction books of 2015 by Kirkus. His third book, A Song for the River, celebrates the lives and mourns the deaths of his comrades in conservation in the Gila Wilderness; it won a Southwest Book Award, and Publishers Weekly and the Amazon Book Review both named it one of the best nonfiction books of the year. He lives in the Mexican-American borderlands. Visit his web site at www.philipconnors.com
