EXCERPTS
"Mr. Bennett has demonstrated strong professionalism. . . . He is able to perform the job well also because of his good understanding of Chinese culture and history. Indeed, one of the stories he wrote, "Solid Stone - Soft Snow -Treading the Short Path in a Changing China", won him a CIPG "Best Article". . . . an honor given out to only five of a thousand articles published in over 20 magazines published by CIPG each year."

Vice President, China International Publishing Group
Lowell Bennett
After more than 15 years self-employed in business and communications in San Francisco, in 2005 I accepted a contract as an editorial consultant with China's largest publishing house. This marked the beginning of an extended term of global residency. After five years based in Beijing and traveling much of China, I traveled across and resided in nearly all the nations of Southeast Asia, with occasional work assignments taking me back to China, Europe and the US. More recently, I traveled and did business in Central America, primarily in Nicaragua and Costa Rica. I am a businessman as well as an award-winning writer and photographer, and I am the author of two photojournalism books on China, a recently completed novel, several screenplays, inflight magazine articles and numerous other works of fiction and nonfiction. A core part of my practice in business communications is the electronic, print and presentational marketing of high-dollar commercial real estate. I now reside in Holland with my (Dutch) wife and young daughter.
Writing and Photography, Books and Magazines
Societal Note: The China books and articles sampled below were produced during a different phase in China's modern development, a somewhat more positive time. My objective then was to encourage greater domestic and international awareness. (Press, propaganda and pretty pictures.)
