    My name is Stephen Toothman. I am an author and photographer working on a series of books called "Zoos: A Photo Book and Guide". I published the first one of the series, "Zoos of the Midwest", this past July. It covers Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. I am currently working on the second book, "Zoos of the Great Lakes", which covers Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin. All total, I am planning on writing six books, each about a different area of the United States.

    I am sure people on this site will be interested in your work. I also published a book on my region called Zoos of the Southwest, covering Southeast California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas. Two other members cowrote an excellent hardcover book that was published last year called America's Top 100 Zoos & Aquariums. If you don't already have it you need it. Here is the discussion thread: America's Top 100 Zoos & Aquariums - ZooChat
