Bruce Brown is...
Bruce Brown is the author of eight books, including Mountain in the Clouds, The History of the Corporation, and Dr. Whacko's Guide To Slow-Pitch Softball.
As a journalist, he has done investigative reporting for the New York Times (the Karen Silkwood story), foreign correspondence for Atlantic Monthly (baseball in Cuba), and book reviews for the Washington Post Book World, as well as script-writing for PBS-TV (The Miracle Planet).
He is also a successful businessman and CEO, having created BugNet and built it into the world's largest supplier of PC bug fixes before it was acquired by a Fortune 500 company at the height of the dot com boom.
As an artist and graphic designer, he pioneered Web design with BugNet, GalbraithMt.com and InTouch.com, and digital painting with works like the signature series, The Summer Before The War. His graphic design work has frequently been done under the name Running Dog.
And as an athlete, he set the world record for climbing on a mountain bike in 1999 and again 2000. His total verts climbed for the year 2000 -- 404,000 vertical feet -- was the vertical equivalent of 13 sea-level-to-summit ascents of Mt. Everest in a 12 month period, a world record that stood for five years until it was finally broken by a professional mountain bike racer who was 20 years younger.
He is currently working on a number of creative projects, including Conversations With Crazy Horse and the accompanying 100 Voices.
