Kent Randolph Knudson

Although schooled in engineering mathematics, Kent's greatest contributions are the result of his lifelong career as an photographer. Having licensed his works to commercial stock agencies, advertisers and marketing companies, Kent's art has dominated and influenced all of his life's pursuits.
Kent's later life was radically altered as a result of an unfortunate cascading injustice at the hands of the government. During the years that Kent spent caring for his beloved mother, who was developing Alzheimer's disease, Kent fell into legal trouble as a result of attempting to safeguard his mother against an invading herd of cattle on their 40-acre ranch near Snowflake.
Compelled into a new life of social justice and activism, Kent sought to fight the injustices he suffered as a consequence of his "Cowcrap" ordeal, devoting his activist efforts towards repealing open range laws, ending malicious prosecution, facilitating prison reform and inmate human rights, promoting jury nullification and court reform.
Among other activist pursuits, Kent is well known for leading the 9/11Truth movement in Phoenix, and hosting a 9/11 Truth and Accountability conference. He also supported various other peace and justice causes including: Ending the US military occupations, defending human rights, environmentalism and sustainability.
Kent is survived by his sister, Cathy Leavitt; nephews Brent Leavitt and Thomas Leavitt; niece Paula Thompson; companion, Sarah Fox; longtime friend Sham Rao, his cat Ewok and the social justice activist community.
Kent will be missed mostly for the passion and drive with which he lived and demonstrated throughout his life and art.
