Golder attended the University of North Carolina Wilmington for graduate school, where he earned a Master of Science degree in marine biology. He immediately began a long and successful career at the National Audubon Society. He held many roles at Audubon, notably as the deputy state director of Audubon’s North Carolina state office and most recently as the program director of the Atlantic Flyway Coast Strategy.
Golder is the recipient of several awards and recognitions, most notably the National Audubon Society’s 2013 Charles H. Callison Professional Award. A talented nature photographer, Golder’s photographs have appeared in dozens of publications, including eight book and magazine covers.
This announcement comes on Earth Day as a result of a partnership between Audubon North Carolina, NC Coastal Land Trust, and the Hutaff/McEachern family, funded by conservation philanthropist Tim Sweeney.
Hutaff is a 2-mile long ribbon of pristine beach and saltmarsh located between Lea Island and Topsail Beach to the north and Figure 8 Island to the south.
“Hutaff Island is a rare gem on the North Carolina coast. It’s one of the last, best examples of a natural barrier island with dynamic dunes and productive saltmarsh,” said Walker Golder, Executive Director of the North Carolina Coastal Land Trust. “We are so very grateful to the Hutaff/McEachern family for their commitment to conserving the island forever and to the partnership that brought us to this important day.”
