Michael J Walsh, Mike to most of his friends and colleagues, is a professor in the School of Animation, Arts & Design at Sheridan College in Oakville, Ontario. Besides his extensive college career, he has been involved in Canadian book publishing for over 40 years, performing a variety of roles from publisher, editor, sales and marketing director and international rights negotiator. He was a delegate to the first government conference on Multiculturalism in Ottawa held in the early 1970s. He attended the first discussion group in Banff that recommended the establishment of an Association of Canadian Studies world-wide. He was also an early member of the original Commit-tee for an Independent Canada. He has worked with many distinguished writers over the years including Irving Layton, Gwendolyn MacEwen, Joy Kogawa, Seymour Mayne, Len Gasparini and David Watmough. He has also guided many students at Sheridan for 35 years, who later became internationally established artists in animation, illustration, graphic design, photography, fashion design and media.
Now, as he reaches the twilight of his teaching career, he hopes that the readers of Singing in the Mist will appreciate the passion, curiosity, imagination and the honest reflections of his inner self that underlie his words.
