Penulis: Hugh A. Russel

Hugh Russel has always been a storyteller and it shows in everything he has done. Following graduation from a commercial arts program and a brief stint in the US Army, Hugh had his first showing of paintings in 1969, at the age of 20. Further demonstrating his artistic flexibility, at 22 he began hosting a long running and hugely popular radio program at Toronto”s top FM station while at the same time writing and illustrating children”s stories and other commercial projects. In the mid “80s, Hugh gravitated to sculpture and his works in bronze, stories of movement and emotion caught in an instant, have been included in private, corporate and public collections around the world, including the Vatican Collection. In the “90s he began writing adult fiction and has, over the past two decades, been developing the characters of the Kat Fernando Series. He lives and works with his wife Cheryl in the beautiful Niagara Escarpment Region of Ontario.
