Ian MacLachlan was born a Montrealer but earned his doctorate at the University of Toronto. He is Professor Emeritus of Geography at the University of Lethbridge in southern Alberta. His academic career included appointments in Sapporo, Japan; Mexico City; Edinburgh; and Perth, Western Australia. Ian now divides his time between Lethbridge and Shenzhen where he is a Professor at Peking University Graduate School of Urban Planning and Design. With research that spans regional development, urban planning, and the geography of food animals, he has published in a range of geography, planning and urban history journals. As a destination speaker for Crystal Cruises, he applies a geographic lens to contextualize the fascinating regional features at different ports of call. He will sail from Barcelona to Fort Lauderdale next month with stops at the Joan Miró foundation in Mallorca and the Pablo Picasso Museum in Malaga. Diane Clark shares his life with tolerance and humor along with two very bad cats.
