Frommer's 2005 San Diego

A third-generation San Diego native, David Swanson "researched" the zoo, beaches, and museums of his hometown long before he carried a notepad to do it. Since 1995, his writing and photography has appeared in more than 45 North American newspapers, including the Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, Boston Globe, Cleveland Plain Dealer, Miami Herald, and The Globe and Mail. His work also regularly appears in National Geographic Traveler, Caribbean Travel and Life and TravelAge West. Swanson spends his downtime bicycling, hiking, tending the garden, enjoying obscure movies, and occasionally pondering his former career in movie marketing and publicity.Swanson, David is the author of 'Frommer's 2005 San Diego', published 2004 under ISBN 9780764571510 and ISBN 0764571516.
