Eric Geisert, a self-taught journalist and photographer who lives in Southern California, worked for 3 years at VW Trends magazine before joining STREET RODDER magazine in 1991. In 2002 he was named one of The 50 Who Made A Difference at the 50th Detroit Autorama and, in 2004, was named editor of Kit Car magazine, a 30-year-old title.

In 2013, at 52 years old, Eric became a freelance writer and photographer supplying articles to publications around the world, which allows him time to work on his collection of 12 or so cars that includes a ’34 five-window Ford coupe, a '32 Ford roadster, a reproduction '59 Lotus 11, a 356 Porsche speedster, a '55 Chevy 210, and a '59 Karmann Ghia. In 2021, Eric was inducted into the National Rod & Custom Car Museum's (Afton, OK) Hall of Fame for his photographic contributions to the hot rodding hobby.
Over his career, Eric's photographic images have graced more than 350 magazine covers and he’s written literally thousands of automotive-related articles.
