Tim Robinson (cartographer)
Tim Robinson (born 1935) is a writer and cartographer. Born in Yorkshire, he studied mathematics at Cambridge University. After a career as a visual artist in Istanbul, Vienna and London he settled in the Aran Islands, off the coast of Co. Galway, and began a detailed study of the landscape of the West of Ireland. He has won two Irish Book Awards for his Connemara books.
==Works==
Robinson has produced maps of the Aran Islands, Connemara, and the Burren in Co. Clare; these are published by Folding Landscapes, the imprint he and his wife Máiréad run from their Roundstone base.
His two-volume study of the Aran Islands, ''Stones of Aran'', is a much-praised compendium of topographical and culture lore, described by Michael Viney as "One of the most original, revelatory and exhilarating works of literature ever produced in Ireland."〔Michael Viney, (review of ''The Stones of Aran'' ), Irish Times.〕 ''Stones of Aran: Pilgrimage'' follows the form of a coastal exploration, while ''Stones of Aran: Labyrinth'' explores the interior.
His most recent work has been the publication of a three-volume study of Connemara: ''Listening to the Wind'', ''A Little Gaelic Kingdom'', and ''The Last Pool of Darkness''. He is a member of the Irish arts organisation Aosdána.
