Rob vs John James Audubon

Now I'm gonna have to find out who John James Audubon is. A recent review:

Robert Marbury's terrifying taxidermy makes me want to run down to my basement and put a lock on my box of bedraggled childhood stuffed animals for fear they might organize and come get me while I sleep. Imagine what happens when a plush toy has been overly loved, left out in the rain, then tossed from a truck and run over a few times. Add fangs and you've got nightmares. I like to picture Rob scooping up the battered remains of Whinnie the Roadkill and ferrying him back to the lab for a little cosmetic surgery and reanimation infusion. Rob photographs the feral beasts in their natural settings - they live throughout the urban areas you once thought safe. Marbury is the John James Audubon of the oughts, preserving these previously undocumented species on film.

Aha! As found at www.jjaudubon.com/
JJA sounds better than Gould. I'm glad our RRM is the JJA of the 00s
