Dick Dorworth

Passionate about mountains, skiing and the written word, Dick Dorworth has lived, worked, skied and climbed in Europe, Asia, Alaska and South America. Dorworth's writing has appeared in many publications. He has published three books, "Night Driving," "The Perfect Turn" and "The Straight Course."

At various times Dorworth has also been the men's coach for the U.S. Ski Team and Director of the Aspen Mountain Ski School, as well as a climbing guide for the Yosemite Mountaineering School, Shasta Mountain Guides and Exum Mountain Guides. A registered Democrat Dorworth thinks his party needs more calcium in its diet. He is also a member of the Sierra Club, but thinks Deep Ecology is closer to the mark.

Dorworth lives in Ketchum, Idaho, in winter and Bozeman, Montana is summer.
