Years of study in Religious Science and the dharma have given Larry Chang a thorough grounding in metaphysics and spirituality. In the course of his work as an intuitive counselor and speaker, he collected many illuminating quotations which he shares in Wisdom for the Soul: Five Millennia of Prescriptions for Spiritual Healing.
He has been, in turn and simultaneously, an artist, designer, editor, activist, trader, consultant and restauranteur - and now publisher. Exiled from Jamaica, he was granted asylum based on sexual orientation by the US, where he now lives in Washington, DC.
He had been working on a novel but he put that aside to compile Wisdom which won the 2006 USABookNews Best Books Award for Non-Fiction Anthology. He subsequently completed Wisdom for the Soul of Black Folk, and is currently working on Wisdom for the Soul of Queer Folk, for publication by Gnosophia. He has written essays, poetry, blogs and hosts a website promoting the Jamaican language.
His most recent foray has been in the area of urban sustainability when he founded EcolocityDC in 2008.
