American photographer and writer Thomas C. Laird has explored the art, culture, and history of the Himalayas since 1972. Based in Nepal for three decades, his reporting and photography have been published globally by TIME, Geo, Newsweek, Le Figaro, National Geographic, and many others. His non-fiction books include a history of Tibet written with the Dalai Lama, translated into 14 languages.

Fine art prints of these works have been the focus of several exhibitions and are held in both public and private collections.
