SUMMARY:National Geographic Live - Standing at the Water's Edge
DESCRIPTION:Photojournalist Cristina Mittermeier knows the power of water: The power to give life when it is respected\, and the power to destroy when it is misused\n\n \n\nNational Geographic Live Standing at the Water's Edge with photographer Cristina Mittermeier\n\nWednesday\, February 27\, 2019 at 7pm \n\n\n\nPhotographer and marine biologist Cristina Mittermeier grew up in the mountains of central Mexico. She never imagined that her life's work would take her to the water's edge and beyond. A presentation by a university recruiter sent her on a path to ocean careers and she has spent 25 years as a writer and photographer\, focusing on the balance between human well-being and healthy ecosystems. She brings her passion to The Lyric with National Geographic Live to talk about her conservation work and how people and coastlines can co-exist.\n\n\n\nMittermeier spent the first 10-15 years as a photographer on land\, focusing on indigenous people in the rainforests of the Amazon. Her goal was always to use her photography to inspire conservation groups with the images she preserved.\n\n\n\nMittermeier first became a biochemical engineer in marine sciences and then an advocate for the ocean and biodiversity. She is the writer and series editor of her own publishing company\, Earth in Focus\, and has produced 24 coffee table books on conservation issues. Her work has been published in prestigious scientific publications including Science and Nature\, as well as in popular magazines like National Geographic. She is a Sony Artisan and a National Geographic Explorer Mentor\, mentoring two young women starting their careers.
