Arthur Gurmankin is retired newspaper editor, technology consultant and professional educator. He has degrees in Biological Science and Art History/Fine Art and currently produces photography and digital art for publishers and, publishes books of his own.

Arthur’s books are primarily about environmental subjects and are richly illustrated with his photographs and digital renditions of plant and animal life and their habitats. He does all of his own book and cover designs and page layouts.

Arthur’s most recent environmental book, A River Which Sweeps Me Along is a series of beautifully conceived and rendered images of mountain and woodland streams and rivers. The spirituality evoked by moving waters is captured through imagery, philosophy and personal commentary. His next book about Nature and the Environment, Incandescent Twilight, is in progress.

The prequel to And the RANTS Just Keep on Coming is RANTS Against the RIGHT-WING.

In reverse chronological order, Arthur is a grandfather, father and husband.
Aside from sending RANTS to newspapers, he spends a lot of time around lakes and trout streams in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains. If you’re in that part of the world and come across someone standing in a stream, holding both a camera and a fly rod, perhaps in the act of photographing a brook trout which he’s about to release, don’t hesitate to say “hello!” It’s probably him. Such behavior does not represent that of a person who is “indecisive,” rather, someone who is twice as passionate as a normal person.

AURTHUR,
IT IS A PLEASURE TO MEET SOMEONE THAT BELIEVES THAT GEORGE BUSH IS THE GREATEST PRESIDENT THAT THIS NATION HAS EVER KNOWN. YOU COULD SEARCH THE WORLD OVER AND NEVER FIND ANOTHER ONE LIKE HIM. TRUE HE HAS KILLED A FEW PEOPLE BUT WHEN YOU ARE RIGHT, YOU ARE RIGHT. WELL, YOU GET THE IDEA, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE THE ABOVE BLAW,BLAW, BLAW. A PLEASURE TO MEET A KINDRED SPIRIT. KEEP YOUR F-STOPS UNDER CONTROL.
