Christopher DeWolf is a writer and photographer. He was born and raised in Calgary, where his passion for cities manifested itself at an early age in the elaborate Lego metropolises he forced his father to build. Eventually, he found SimCity, and then later photography, propelling him to share both his imaginary cities and his real city online. Chris launched Urbanphoto in September 1999 and has maintained it since. In 2002, he moved to Montreal where he earned a degree in Canadian Studies and History at McGill University.

Chris has worked as a freelance writer since 2002. His work has appeared in the Montreal Gazette, the Montreal Mirror, the National Post, the McGill Reporter, Maisonneuve, Hour, Spacing, onAir, Headway, Western Living, This Magazine, Canadian Notes and Queries and Time Out Hong Kong, among other newspapers and magazines. He now lives in Hong Kong where he is pursuing a master’s degree at the University of Hong Kong.
