Edward
Readicker-Henderson
reported from more than 70 countries and every continent.
He won three Lowell Thomas Awards, made the “Notable” list of Best American Travel Writing four times, and was the recipient of a Northern Lights Award, for the best magazine travel story on Canada, plus was given a few somewhat more obscure awards.
U.S. Poet Laureate Rita Dove remarked that his reflective style was "like watching a particularly elegant sleight-of-hand." The compliment was especially apt, since Edward could also juggle five balls and eat fire.
