OASLMS Program

Sponsor: OASLMS

Richard Trout is an environmental biologist, consultant, and college professor dedicated to sharing his passion for the natural environment with people of all ages through his series of adventure novels. He has lived the undersea adventures that most of us can only dream of by diving the rugged coast and kelp bed of California, many tropical reefs of the Caribbean, and the mighty Cayman Wall. Mr. Trout is an amateur history and geography buff. He deftly blends the facts of science and the fiction of folklore into fast-paced stories for middle-school readers.
