John King, Crabber: Slideshow

John King braved the icy waters of the Arctic Circle as a crab and shrimp fisherman before diving into the world of biotechnology. King says that his experiences as an Alaskan fisherman prepared him for the rigors of starting and operating biotech companies during the salad days of the industry. Here are some photos of his days plying the Bering Sea from King's private collection.
