Reg Down grew up in Canada, Namibia, South Africa and Ireland. He trained in eurythmy, an art of movement and gesture, in England and Germany. The father of three, he was a eurythmist in Waldorf schools in Australia, Canada and the United States, as well as being on the faculty at Rudolf Steiner College in Fair Oaks, California.

He is the author of eight children’s books, most of them arising out of his work with kindergarten and the younger grades. He has also written two professional books: Leaving Room for the Angels, AWSNA Publications, a exploration of artistic pedagogy through the eyes of eurythmy, and Color and Gesture—the Inner Life of Color, Lightly Press. These titles were illustrated by him to varying degrees, and he created the cover designs for all bar one.

He currently lives in Sacramento, California, writing, publishing, storytelling, puppeteering and generally hanging around and twiddling his thumbs.
