  Who is Scott London?

Scott London is an independent journalist based in southern California. He's perhaps best known as the host of "Insight & Outlook," a cultural affairs program heard on many National Public Radio stations in the U.S. and on global shortwave during the 1990s.

Scott has spent the better part of two decades interviewing frontier thinkers and social innovators — men and women charting new directions in science, education, technology and other fields. He has distilled much of that learning into a series of writings and radio programs on social entrepreneurship, public innovation, and the ideas shaping our future.

He's contributed to many books and published widely in newspapers, magazines, and scholarly journals. He's also authored studies and reports on a range of important issues, including the state of American journalism, current trends in higher education, and the political ramifications of new communications technologies.

Scott devotes much of his time to consulting projects aimed at social innovation and civic renewal. He's worked with many academic, government and nonprofit organizations, including the Kettering Foundation, the University of Michigan, the Pew Partnership for Civic Change, the Harwood Institute and the National Issues Forums.

He also works as a contract photographer and photojournalist. His images have been licensed for advertising and editorial use in books, magazines, and newspapers worldwide. His work has been exhibited in museums and private galleries in several cities across the U.S.

Raised and educated in Sweden, Scott moved to the States in 1990. He lives in Santa Barbara, California, with his wife and their two teenage girls.
