Sid Marty

SID MARTY was raised in Alberta, educated in Montreal. He has worked as a Park Warden for most of the last ten years. His first book, Headwaters, was published by McClelland and Stewart in 1973. Sid says: "For the past two years I have been working on a kind of autobiographical book on the life of a Park Warden, an attempt to punch out the limits between fiction and non-fiction. What I'm basically trying to do, is tell the truth and pay off a mortgage at the same time. It is proving to be impossible." He presently lives in Canmore, Alberta, and works in the Stoney Creek backcountry area of Banff National Park.
