Doug Myers was born in California, raised in Oregon, and in Southern California and Washington State served professionally as a licensed counseling therapist with agencies and in private practice settings. Doug completed graduate studies in Southern California where he earned a master's degree in theology and a doctorate degree in counseling psychology. In Southern California he worked in a holistic care setting as a counseling therapist for the Beverly Hills Doctors Hospital. While working in the Seattle area he received additional post-graduate training with the Institute for Bio-Energetic analysis of New York. Doug served as Director of Family Court while working with divorcing couples and families, and consultant to the Court of Domestic Relations in Washington State.
Doug later became joint owner of a rustic fish camp located on a remote river in Southwest Alaska. His adventures were shared with Native friends at their historic village site in the Bristol Bay Region. Visits to Bristol Bay and other distant areas of the Bering Sea, Alaska Peninsula, and Kodiak island offered cultural insights, fascinating sport fishing experiences, and close encounters with some of Alaska's renowned brown bear.
As an Alaskan author Myers' goal is to share Alaska's intrigue, including its scenic treasure, Native culture, and wildlife adventure. His counseling and communications background encourages a sensitive narrative style of meaningful wilderness journeys leading to soulful discoveries. Myers' passions also include photography and illustrative art, which are incorporated in his writings and publications.
Recent writings include a rhythmic poetic style that is thematic in content, e.g., Character, Family, Lifestyle, Love, and Nature.
The latest amplified edition with narrative and lyric support is a visual sharing of experiences captured by the author / poet / photographer. It embraces a rich and romantic tradition that has remained virtually unchanged in historically preserved areas of Mexico.
Pueblos presented are in areas of Puerto Vallarta in the state of Jalisco, Cuyutlán in the state of Colima, and Zihuatanejo, or 'Zihua' as it is affectionately known, in the state of Guerrero along Mexico's west coast. The more recent development of Ixtapa near 'Zihua' is included while not claiming the same historical prominence as with the other locations. Also included is the coastal pueblo of Loreto located in the state of Baja California Sur on the shore of the Sea of Cortez. The village is known for its historical importance and ecological resource opportunities.
Each chapter is a montage photo presentation illustrating the rustic pueblo environment and lifestyle often missed by the casual outsider while visiting the area. Included also are original poems by the author written from experience to introduce and enhance the visual presentation of each location. Throughout is portrayed the magic of Mexico as a dedication to its humble and proud tradition. The storyline viewing is of a personally passionate journey welcomed by casual congeniality, exotic food and drink, and a stimulating environment.
Viewing the photos with narrative and lyrics will be nostalgic for some and a vicarious new adventure for others. All will be exposed to a gentle culture embraced and preserved by each of the four Mexican locations bordering the Pacific Coast and Sea of Cortez.
