About
the Author
A life-long Westerner, Tom Reed is the
author of two books. In 2003, he wrote Great Wyoming Bear
Stories, a work compiled through dozens of personal interviews
with people whose lives had been changed — positively
and negatively — by Wyoming bruins.
Most recently, he wrote Give Me Mountains
For My Horses, a collection of essays about horses that
Reed has owned in his lifetime. The personal essays follow
Reed’s evolution as a horseman, with a particular
emphasis on wild Wyoming country and good equine companionship.
Both books were published by Riverbend Publishing, Helena,
Montana.
His fiction and nonfiction work has also
appeared in several anthologies. Reed at one time was the
managing editor for the Lander Journal, and served as Senior
Editor for Wyoming Wildlife magazine. In addition, he was
the Publications Manager for NOLS (National Outdoor Leadership
School) for nearly ten years. He is a regular columnist
of Wyoming Wildlife News and has won multiple awards from
the Wyoming Wildlife Federation, the Association for Conservation
Information, the Colorado Press Association and the Wyoming
Press Association. He attended the prestigious Bread Loaf
Writer’s Conference at Middlebury College in 2001.
He currently splits his time between Montana and Wyoming.
