Carole Devillers

Photographer, writer, explorer, caver, lecturer, tour leader, translator, Carole Devillers has more than one string to her bow. Before turning her lens onto birds, she has been on mission to photograph caves in Haiti, co-creating a program of exploration and promotion of the caves of Haiti, and was Reuters News Pictures’s resident photojournalist in Haiti for ten years, covering the political unrest during which she was shot at and had film confiscated. She has traveled to remote corners of the world, living with diverse tribes and people in West Africa, with Amazon Indians in French Guiana, and joining Haitian voodoo pilgrims on their purification

pilgrimages, all recorded in her articles for National Geographic Magazine. She is the author of several children’s books and has been published internationally. For the past ten years she has been organizing and leading photo tours to India, France and USA for photo enthusiasts. See www.adventurephotoexpeditions.com. She now also focuses her lens on birds with the same passion and enthusiasm she has for world cultures.

Carole is represented in the book “Women photographers at National Geographic”. She lives in Tampa, Florida, and is a member of the Tampa Audubon Society and Tampa Bay Area Grotto caving club.
