Ken Stewart became a certified diver in 1990 at the age of 46. A park archeologist peaked his interest about a sunken slave ship, and, in 2003, he helped form Divers With A Purpose, a partnership between the National Association of Black Scuba Divers and the National Parks Service. Ken has been active in conservation, training young divers and training divers of all ages to function as marine archeologists. He has received multiple awards for his accomplishments, but would be the first to point out he is only one person of many contributing to such great causes. Ken has three sons and lives in Tennessee.
