Dr. Robert Michael Pyle is a pioneer and legend in invertebrate conservation research and advocacy, as well as an accomplished author and poet.  In 1971, he founded the Xerces Society, which has grown into the most influential invertebrate conservation organization in the world.
He is also the author of many books of prose and poetry, and a great storyteller.  This is part one of our conversation, part two will be out next week.
