Author : John Hargrove, Howard Chua-Eoan

This book was co-written by two authors. John Hargrove, the first author, is a former senior killer whale trainer with 14 years of experience. Discontented with the way SeaWorld confined killer whales, he quit his job and started to fight for killer whales’ well-being. He actively participated in making the documentary Blackfish, which uncovers the cruelty of the marine park industry. Howard Chua-Eoan, the second author, was News Director for Time magazine from 2000 to 2013 and later worked for Bloomberg Businessweek as Deputy Managing Editor.
