Mark Cloutier

Author

  • Mark Cloutier is an Australian author whose writing sits at the intersection of fly fishing, nature, and personal narrative. He is the author of River Song (2019) and a regular contributor to FlyLife magazine. His essays and features have appeared internationally, including in The Fly Fish Journal and The Drake in the United States.

    After retiring from corporate life, Cloutier relocated to Tasmania’s Central Highlands, where he lives with his wife and writes from a remote lakeside shack. Looking for June is his most personal work to date, drawing on a lifetime of fly fishing and a late-life search for his birth mother to explore identity, masculinity, and the quiet work of attention.
