Thursday, May 14, 2009 from 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM (ET)
Presented by National Geographic photographer Brian Skerry.
Brian Skerry has covered a diverse range of stories, from the harp
seal's struggle to survive in frozen waters, to the alarming decrease
in the world's fisheries. For stories in back-to-back issues of
National Geographic during 2008, Skerry photographed Kingman Reef, one
of the planet's last remaining pristine coral reefs, and documented the
plight of the Right Whale, threatened by heavy shipping along the
coastal waters it frequents. In the May, 2009, issue of the magazine
he will focus on the world's most endangered species of sea turtle with
a story on leatherbacks. This special presentation will showcase work
from these stories as well as other remaining Edens for sharks and the
success of marine protected areas. An award-wining photographer praised
for his aesthetic sense as well as his journalistic drive for
relevance, Skerry will offer compelling, up-to-the-minute reports from
the world's oceans.
