Steven Hawley lives in Hood River, Oregon with his wife Kathy, son Elliot and daughter Annabel. He is the author of Recovering A Lost River, (Beacon Press, 2011) which examines the growing dam removal movement in the U.S. He’s also the co-producer of Dammed to Extinction, a documentary film that depicts the plight of killer whales that depend on salmon as a source of food. For the past 15 years, Steven has also been an advocate for the removal of four federal dams on the lower Snake River, which would offer salmon and steelhead unfettered access to thousands of miles of pristine wilderness streams protected in one of the country’s largest wilderness areas.
