Kim was a professional nature photographer for 35 years, with his images sold around the world by the photo stock agencies Getty, DRK, Peter Arnold and Accent Alaska. These days, with his aging knees, he travels light and takes photos with his iPhone. He’s won the Daniel Housberg Wilderness Image Award for Excellence in Still Photography from the Alaska Conservation Foundation, and in 2001 he served as the official photographer on the month-long Harriman Alaska Expedition Retraced. His photos have been published in Audubon, Orion, Outside and Sierra magazines, in National Geographic and Smithsonian books, and in The Guardian and the Wall Street Journal, among other publications.
