Bio
Noah’s field mycology skills are extensive – he has spent two decades seeking, photographing, identifying, and furthering his knowledge about all aspects of macrofungi. He has hunted for mushrooms throughout the United States and Canada, as well as on multiple expeditions to New Zealand and Australia.
He is one of the premier mushroom photographers in the nation, having won numerous awards from the North American Mycological Association (NAMA) photography contest. His technique and attention to detail are unrivaled, arising from a philosophy of maximizing utility for identification purposes while maintaining a high degree of aesthetic appeal.
Noah recently worked with Green Mountain Digital as a consultant for the Audubon Guide to Mushrooms of North America Macintosh/Apple application, for which he supplied over 300 photographs. His photographs have appeared on the covers and have been featured in articles of multiple issues of FUNGI Magazine and Mushroom the Journal, the primary mushroom enthusiast magazines in the United States and numerous mushroom books, including the cover shot on Ascomycete Fungi of North Americaas. He is currently working on, along with Christian Schwarz, Mushrooms of the Redwood Coast, a comprehensive field guide for the northern California coast.
He is past president of the Monadnock Mushroomers Unlimited (MMU), a mushroom club based out of Keene, New Hampshire, and is an active member of the Humboldt Bay Mycological Society and the Fungus Federation of Santa Cruz.
He serves as a trustee for the Northeast Mycological Federation and NAMA and is on NAMA's Photography Committee and is the Chairperson for the NAMA Foray Committee.
Noah travels and lectures extensively across America, following the mushrooms from east to west and everywhere in between. His presentations at the Telluride Mushroom Festival will include the following:
