About the Author:

Former Chicago Lighthouse Board of Directors member Larry Broutman attended MIT, receiving his S.B., S.M., and a doctorate in Materials Engineering and Science in 1963. During his career in Polymer Engineering and Science, he was an active researcher, teacher (Illinois Institute of Technology), and writer of over 150 technical articles. He also authored technical reference books and college textbooks in Composite Materials. Broutman has received many honors and awards in the plastics engineering profession and was recently elected to the Plastics Hall of Fame.

In the early 1990s, Larry's avocation became wildlife and landscape photography and traveling worldwide to photograph his subjects. He has published his work in magazines such as Africa Geographic and BBC Wildlife. This has now become his full-time profession. He has completed photographic projects for the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago, the Children’s Memorial Hospital Clinic, and The Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. The tasks for Lurie hospital developed into publishing its first photo book, a whimsical combination of wildlife and Chicago landscapes, Chicago Unleashed.

His next book, Chicago Monumental, a photographic exploration of over 250 statues, fountains, memorials, and familiar and forgotten public art in the Windy City, garnished praise from Chicagoland television and radio programs and national art magazines. Chicago Monumental has been recognized with a Midwest Book Award for best interior design, an IPPY Award in the Great Lakes Nonfiction category, and the gold medal in AuthorsDB’s Book Cover Contest.
