A native of Chicago and life long lover of the outdoors, Seamus Ford has spent 20 years working in the personal development field. An enthusiastic advocate of people taking personal responsibility for life working, he is the founder and editor of the Environmental Citizen, a location on the web where personal responsibility, community, economics and environmental stewardship come together for intelligent conversation. When he is not in his Chicago garden, you will likely find him on the wilderness land in Northern Ontario that he and his wife have been the stewards for since 2003.
