Nature & Wildlife Photographer John Ehrenfeld was born and raised in New York City, John attending the High School of Music & Art. After graduating from college with a Fine Arts Degree, John became a television commercial producer, eventually starting his own company and moving it to Los Angeles where it prospered for two decades.

He is currently working on his first book, "Silently Into The Wild," which will be published in 2019 and has shot for Audubon and numerous other organizations and publications.
