Bio
Bob Krist is a freelance photographer who works regularly
on assignment for magazines such as National Geographic
Traveler, Smithsonian, and Islands. These
assignments have taken him to all seven continents and have
won awards in the Pictures of the Year, Communication Arts,
and World Press Photo competitions. He has been stranded
on a glacier in Iceland, nearly run down by charging bulls
in southern India, and knighted with a cutlass during a
Trinidad voodoo ceremony. He won the title of "Travel
Photographer of the Year" from the Society of American
Travel Writers in 1994, 2007, and again this year at the
2008 convention. In 2000, his work was honored at the Eisenstaedt
Awards for Magazine Photography in New York City.
Bob's books include In Tuscany (Broadway Books, NY),
which features 270 pages of his photographs of the region
and is a collaboration with author Frances Mayes. It spent
a month on the New York Times bestseller list. He also photographed
the coffeetable books Caribbean, Portrait of the
Caribbean, and Low Country: Charleston to Savannah (Graphic
Arts Center Publishing) , A Photo Tour of New York (Photo
Secrets Publishing, San Diego), and Impressions of Bucks
County (Old Mill Productions, New Hope PA).
An accomplished writer as well as a photographer, Bob is
a contributing editor at both National Geographic Traveler
and Outdoor Photographer, where he writes a travel photography
column. His how-to book Spirit of Place: The Art of The
Traveling Photographer (Amphoto Books, NY) was hailed
by American Photographer magazine as "the best book
about travel photography we've ever read." He lectures
in Washington DC as part of the ongoing "Live at the
National Geographic" series. He teaches photo workshops
for the Maine and Santa Fe Photo Workshops, National Geographic
Expeditions, and Linblad Expeditions.
A former professional actor, Bob hosted Nature's Best Photography,
a 13-part series for National Wildlife Productions on the
Outdoor Life Network, and Photography Close Up, one of Cablevision's "MagRack" series.
He also hosted the PBS special,
"Restoration Stories." Bob lives in New Hope,
Pennsylvania, with his wife Peggy. They are the parents
of three sons, Matthew, Brian, and Jonathan.
