Denver Bryan claims he comes from a family that suffers a common genetic defect. "We're all self employed," he says. "We apparently don't work well for others." For twenty years he has traveled the world photgraphing mostly wildlife, flyfishing, and hunting. "The government lets me call it work, but my friends don't," he laments. Denver makes his home in Bozeman, Montana with his wife Anne and their two children, Taylor (a golden retriever), and Zuri (a rhodesian ridgeback). Want to see more shots by Denver?
