Kenneth Dupee Swan (1887–1970), more commonly known as K.D. Swan, was an American nature photographer in the early part of the 20th century. During his career in the USDA Forest Service (1911–1947) he took many picture of the American Northwest. Swan captured the face of public lands, revealing its wildness and value to the American public. His messages of long ago still emanate from his images - the value of conserving public lands and the joy of living in magnificent wild places. ==Early life==
Swan first learned to love America's wilderness while rambling the hills of his native Massachusetts. His "first love was a range of hills — the Blue Hills of Milton and Quincy — high points on the south rim of the Boston Basin." As he later described it, "This was my wilderness, easily reached from home by bicycle, trolley, or even on foot, and here I spent countless carefree hours in all seasons.... Here, too, was born a desire to become a forester ... a decision I have never regretted."〔 (Forest Images by K. D. Swan: Pictures Needed in the Telling | Montana: The Magazine of Western History )〕〔K. D. Swan, Splendid Was the Trail (Missoula, Mont., 1968), 3-4.〕
