Clay is an environmental lawyer and educator who has worked to protect Florida land since the 1980s. He drafted or sponsored many of the environmental provisions in the Florida Constitution. Clay's descriptions will celebrate the individuals and organizations who made Florida a leader in state-funded conservation and land preservation. He will recount how many of Florida's activists, artists, philanthropists, and politicians have worked to designate threatened land for use as parks, preserves, and other conservation areas.

His book, Forces of Nature - A History of Florida Land Conservation, recently published by University Press of Florida, will be available for purchase and signing.
