In Search of Tusitala by Gavin Bell
Gavin Bell, for many years an admirer of Stevenson and his work, retraces Stevenson's passage through the more remote communities of French Polynesia, Hawaii, Kiribati and Samoa. On his tour through Polynesia and Micronesia he finds haunting echoes of a fading culture which enchanted Stevenson and in Hawaii finds a man who possesses one of the finest private Stevenson collections.For the Nature Publishing Group, Gavin Bell creates social web apps. He is a product manager, community advocate, and interaction designer. He's been writing and creating on the web since the early 1990s. His work at NPG and previously at the BBC has centered on large-scale web applications in the areas of identity, on-demand video, geolocation, and social software. He's worked in academia, advertising, publishing, and multimedia software development.
With his wife and two sons, he lives in London. See his personal website, gavinbell.com, and his blog, take one onion, for more information. Picture courtesy of James Duncan Davidson.
