During Steven's career as an ethnographer, environmentalist, and social scientist, he has conducted personal biographic interviews with people from many different cultures, in many different languages.

One early project involved filming a series of biographical interviews with the last living tribe of head-hunters in the remote mountains of central Taiwan. This later became a fascinating series of films about this incredible group of people and their fast-vanishing lifestyle.

Moving on from that, Steve has visited and interviewed people from many walks of life, including philosophers in China, archeologists in Pakistan, farmers in Ohio, environmentalists in Ecuador, safari organizers in South Africa, and University professors in Cambodia, Hong Kong, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.

From these and other adventures, Steven has developed biographical research skills that can help others to identify the key themes in the stories of their lives.
