Steve Frye grew up in the woods of Minnesota where he began a lifelong interest in natural history, especially birds, at a very early age. After graduating from St. Olaf College with a degree in chemistry, Steve joined the Peace Corps in Kenya to teach high school science. The incredible birdlife in Africa intensified Steve’s birding zeal. Steve worked as a chemist for a short time after returning from Kenya. He eventually settled in Colorado and opened the Wild Bird Center of Boulder in January 1989. The Wild Bird Center, with the support of its customers, has provided the community with quality bird products and educational opportunities since that time. Steve married Julie Graf in 1997 and they have 2 children, Genevieve and Charlie.
