Penulis: Ed Smith

Ed Smith began his writing career with his humour column, which first appeared in 1983 and has been running continuously since in several papers and one monthly magazine. Five collections of those columns have been published, as well as three non-fiction books. His books, articles, and columns have won the Newfoundland and Labrador non-fiction award for 2002, the international Gabriel award, and the Canadian Nurses Association award. He has been recognized by the Atlantic Community Newspapers Association.
