Larry Wright is a national gold medal award winning photographer who has been involved with lighthouse preservation since 1991. He was on the Board of Directors for the Great Lakes Lighthouse Keepers Association based in Mackinac, Michigan, for 20 years. Larry has co-written four books about lighthouses on the Great Lakes along with his wife Pat. They are The Great Lakes Lighthouses Encyclopedia; Bonfires and Beacons; Bright Lights, Dark Nights; and Lightships of the Great Lakes.

Larry is currently working on a project called Chronicles of Lighthouses on the Great Lakes. The chronicles have now exceeded 9,000 pages and when finished, Larry says it will be about 12,000 pages. The Chronicles will be housed at a number of universities and non-profit museums and lighthouse organizations.
