He currently resides north of Toronto with his best friend and reluctant critic, Susan. A Ryerson trained photographer introduced to the Stikine River by the author in 1982, Gary Fiegehen continued to focus on the people and landscapes of British Columbia, publishing seven books, including STIKINE: The Great River (1991), while working with various First Nations, particularly the Nisga'a during their successful efforts to attain the first modern-day treaty in the province. Until his passing, Gary lived in Vancouver with his partner Sara. See less
