His writings for the stage have won numerous commissions and awards and have been produced in Canada, the U.S., England, and Germany. He was the co-founder, with Beth Carruthers, of the Songbird Project – one of the first eco-art projects in Canada to bring together the arts, sciences, and community activists – and his poetry and scholarly articles have appeared in several journals and anthologies. With the assistance of a Canada Council Award and a SHHRC Insight Development Grant, he is currently working on the libretto and pre-production for Here Oceans Roar, an eco-opera and film script based on his experiences as a salmon troller in the Pacific Northwest, which incorporates oceanographic research from Ocean Networks Canada.view less
