Description |
Transcipt (24 pages) of interview by Rob DeBirk with Steve Bloch, on July 22, 2008 |
Abstract |
Bloch grew up in the suburbs outside of Cleveland, Ohio, and got his degree at Miami University with a focus in Botany and Political Science. The summer before his senior year of college he took a job in Burns, Oregon, and first experienced the west and so after graduation he took a job with the Forest Service in Washington State. He attended law school at the University of Utah and became an attorney for SUWA. He first focused on off-road vehicles and America's Red Rock Wilderness Act. He thinks more is accomplished when an organization is site-specific in their actions; for example his work with off road vehicles. He likes to think that SUWA does both reactive and proactive work. SUWA believes that lands are managed for all people, which is difficult for local people to accept.Utah Environmentalist Oral History Project. Interviewer: Rob DeBirk |
