Autoren-Porträt von Steve Brooks, Steve Cham
Steve Brooks has been interested in dragonflies since he was young. He was impressed by the voracious dragonfly larvae that ate everything else in the jars he had filled during pond-dipping trips, and by the adult dragonflies later emerging from those same jars lined up on his bedroom windowsill. Steve has been fortunate to pursue this interest in his professional career as a specialist in freshwater insects and environmental change at the Natural History Museum in London, where he is now a Scientific Associate following retirement in 2017. He has published 275 scientific papers and book chapters, many of them on dragonflies, and five books, including the New Naturalist volume Dragonflies with Philip Corbet. Steve is a founder member of the British Dragonfly Society (BDS), a former editor of the Journal of the British Dragonfly Society, and currently serves on the BDS Conservation Committee. He is Associate Editor of Odonatologica.
