Steve Lorton brings his unique storytelling and experience at Sunset Magazine to the stage at our NPA Spring program at beautiful Lakewold Gardens in Tacoma.   His tenure at Sunset began in 1972 and spans various positions from Staff Editor to NW Editor and Bureau Chief, to his current recognition as Sunset's Ambassador.  His diverse schedule includes the rounds of regional garden shows and clubs, yet leaving him time to speak throughout the U.S. and even spend time with Holland America Cruise Lines as a Guest Lecturer.  

In addition to his devotion to family and personal gardening pursuits, Steve is kept busy teaching classes on Creative Writing and Poetry at North Seattle Community College and his business, Lorton Communications.  He has been recognized for his important contributions and achievements by organizations including the State's Master Gardener Program, the Washington Park Arboretum, and NHS as well as horticultural publications and television segments.   Steve is a treasure of knowledge and experience; we look forward to a very entertaining afternoon and Lakewold Gardens in full bloom!
