About Steve Bledsoe
Steve is a native Californian who grew up in the San Gabriel Valley and is now a resident of San Clemente, a small coastal community in south Orange County, California. Steve’s father and grandfather taught him a love of the outdoors and nature at a very early age, and like many young boys, he acquired a curiosity towards reptiles and amphibians that he never outgrew. Throughout his adult life, Steve has always been interested in biology and zoology, but he has made a living as a machinist, design engineer and business owner. He has been a sport fisherman for as long as he can remember, but his favorite avocation is field herping and introducing others, especially youngsters, to the fascinating world of herpetology.
