David Helvarg is a journalist turned activist. He is the author of Blue Frontier: Saving America's Living Seas (Sierra Club Books, 2005), as well as The War Against the Greens (Johnson Books, 2004). He is founder and president of the Blue Frontier Campaign.
From Kirkus review of War Against the Greens:
"Helvarg, an investigative reporter and documentary filmmaker, went behind the front lines to interview the movement's leaders, its grassroots supporters, industry and New Right backers, as well as the victims of the rising tide of antigreen violence. Helvarg brilliantly documents the creeping polarization in American life that we see also in such issues as abortion rights and gun control. "
