WRITER • PHOTOGRAPHER • BROADCASTER

MyportrtaitMark Sparrow is a Bath-based writer, photographer and broadcaster. He’s worked on publications as diverse as Guitarist, Diesel Car and even Metal Hammer magazine. He’s broadcast on radio stations from Cornwall to the Scottish Highlands... and even the BBC World Service.

 

He currently contributes to a large number of technology publications and newspapers including Digital Camera and The Daily Telegraph. He was also editor of Digital Camera Shopper, the UK’s best camera buying guide.

 

Mark originally trained as a photographer before moving into journalism via PR. A spell in Germany working for an enormous steel company sharpened his sense of irony as he struggled to find exciting words to describe bucket-wheel excavators and hot-strip mills.

 

His influences include writers like Keith Waterhouse, Miles Kington and Bill Bryson. Mark’s hobbies are competition bog-snorkelling and rare kangaroo breeding. Actually, that last bit isn’t true... his real passions are backgammon, Portugal, early music and red wine... doesn’t sound quite as exciting, though, does it?
