Captivated by a powerful respect for nature, The Walkers have spent years traveling and photographing the wilderness. Their mission is to create artwork that inspires people to appreciate and protect the natural world.
'Earthwalk: A 5,000-Mile Odyssey From Alaska to Mexico' chronicles the muscle-powered trek undertaken by The Walkers, with narrations by legendary Orson Welles. Here’s a link to the 'Earthwalk' trailer with a snippet of Mr. Welles’s unforgettable narration earthart.biz/earthwalk-ebook.html. (FYI, Mr. Welles was kind enough to also write the book’s ‘Introduction’, while conservationist David Brower wrote the ‘Foreword’. As an aside, all releases have been secured.)
Moreover, Eastman Kodak sponsored our ‘Earthwalk’ multimedia show, which toured nationwide for 3 ½ years and was presented more than 350 times with great acclaim. This project also spawned an ebook, screenplay, mock-up for a coffee table book, and a teleplay treatment for a 12-part TV series (the first episode of which has already been written).
