BIO
Dan lives in Virginia, USA with his wife, dog and two cats.
​
Dan’s day job is sustainability law. He has had the great honor to represent many of the US’s leading non-profits working on sustainable buildings and pedestrian-oriented communities, as well as with developers of sustainable communities and new, alternative energy companies. He is co-founder and partner in Vertical Vision, where his title is lawyer and vision wallah (there is a detailed version of his legal resume there). He recently started BluLightning, a company focused on virtual trainings in urbanism, sustainability, and biodiversity, and Zoopolis Now!, a website where he shares information on helping wildlife and humans share habitats.
​
Dan writes his novels under the name Dan Slone, and his nonfiction under the name Daniel K. Slone (mostly).
​
He grew up on the Gulf of Mexico where he developed a deep love of the ecology and its inhabitants. Besides degrees in law and political science, he has a degree in philosophy, which is why his characters are always lost.
​
Dan was profiled The Rise of Living Architecture, published in 2012.
