Speaker Bio:
Originally from Brisbane, Australia and now living in Ontario, Canada, Ken has kept fish for over 55 years, since he was 9. He didn’t realize it at the time, but right from the start he collected fishes and plants (and even substrates) from his local creeks and was creating biotopes. It was only years later that he heard that term and realized he had been doing this since the beginning.
He has been a member of the Australian New Guinea Fishes Association for many years and he is currently the North American President for that regional group. He is also President of the Chatham-Kent Aquarium Society and has been active in the organised hobby. He will be familiar to many people as the person who operates Lisa’s Lair Bookstore with his wife Lisa. He is well-read on most aquarium and terrarium subjects having an extensive library on these subjects. He also produced a podcast on many Natural History subjects for many years for Nature’s Talk Show.
