Kevin Kelly

Kevin Kelly is the founding executive editor of Wired magazine, and former publisher of the Whole Earth Catalog. Kelly is considered an expert in digital culture, and is said to have helped make technology part of popular culture. In 1994, Wired won the National Magazine Award for General Excellence. Kelly is now editor at large for Wired magazine. He is a former editor of Whole Earth Review (see CoEvolution Quarterly), Signal, and some of the later editions of the Whole Earth Catalog. With Whole Earth's founder, Stewart Brand, Kelly helped found the WELL, a highly regarded online community. He has been a director of the Point Foundation, which sponsored the first Hackers Conference in 1984 (before the word "hacker" had its current common, negative connotation). Among Kelly's strong personal interests is a campaign to make a full inventory of all living species on earth. The All Species Inventory received a million dollars in funding, which is currently endorsed by many quarters in biology as "an idea whose time has come." The goal is to make an attempt at an "all species" web-based catalog in one generation (25 years).

Publications

Kelly's writing has appeared in many national and international publications such as The New York Times, The Economist, TIME, Harper's Magazine, Science, GQ, and Esquire. His photographs have appeared in LIFE and other American national magazines.
