In the 1999 book, Cryptozoology A to Z written by Loren Coleman and Jerome Clark, Dave Walsh describes his early interests in cryptozoology, psychology, philosophy and the paranormal as being the result of spending far too much time in his own company. After a brief, and what he describes as a far too eventful, academic career, Walsh worked as an internet communication specialist and website designer, part time journalist and occasional gentleman adventure.
Dave Walsh is a founding member and Chair of the Internet department at the Charles Fort Institute, a resource for scholarship and research in the understanding of strange experiences and anomalous phenomena. In 1998, Walsh traveled to Norway to take part in a G.U.S.T., Global Underwater Search Team, expedition investigating claims of a lake monster in Lake Seljord, Telemark. Walsh’s accounts of this rather turbulent expedition can be read online at his website, www.blather.com.
Today, Dave Walsh lives in Clare, Ireland and continues his journalism and has become and active member of Greenpeace. Over the last several years he has been a regular fixture on Greenpeace expeditions as a blogger. Dave Walsh has become quite the passionate photographer, focusing mainly on nature and landscape photography but has covered all kinds of topics in the travels. Dave’s photographs have been used on numerous occasions by Greenpeace and have appeared in several different magazines including Israel’s Masa Acher magazine, Ireland’s The Clare People and Fortean Magazine just to name a few.
