Clients such as Hewlett-Packard, Playboy, Inc., and The New York Times rely on his bold, graphic style for editorial, corporate and advertising art. This is the first time he has illustrated a pop-up book. Dave received a BFA from Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia in 1982. After college he worked for both The Oakland Tribune and San Francisco Examiner newspapers as a staff artist.Author Don Compton retired from the steel business in 1996, and, doing business as W.W.West, Inc., has since published 16 books—13 with national park themes. Great Lodges of the National Parks, companion book to the PBS television series, is the most successful with 120,000 copies sold. He was Content Producer for that program and another PBS series, Great Lodges of the Canadian Rockies. Don is a collector of antique movable books (pop-ups), and frequently travels the national parks with his family. Many of the stories in the book were experienced on those trips. Don is celebrating his 77th birthday by publishing America's National Parks, A Pop-Up Book, a true labor of love.
