A native of San Francisco, Christopher Dewees received his Ph.D. in Ecology from the University of California, Davis. He taught fisheries as a Peace Corps volunteer in Chile in 1970-72. Since 1972 he has been a marine fisheries specialist between the University of California, Davis, and the State's commercial and recreational fishing industries. His prints have been exhibited with Gyotaku-no-kai in Tokyo, as well as at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, the California Academy of Sciences, the Oakland Museum, and numerous other galleries and natural history museums. He lives in Davis with his wife Christine. Of their two grown sons, one is an avid angler, the other a marine biologist.
