RENOWNED WILDLIFE AUTHOR AND PHOTOGRAPHER DIES
Swiss born photographer and writer David Pluth passed away last weekend at the Nyungwe Forest National Park in Rwanda, while on assignment in the country. David has been a long-time friend and supporter of this central eastern African nation, where in 2003, he produced the first ever national tourism brochure for Rwanda. He was also connected to the National Geographic Society and had his photographs published in several books. His friends in Rwanda and around the world were left stunned by the sad news, and this column expresses sincere condolences to the late David’s family and friends.
