In a water trough on a Texas cattle ranch in 1959, a little cowboy named Paul Cater Deaton learned how to clear a mask after watching an episode of "Sea Hunt" on TV. Today, he is a world-renowned Writer, Producer, Director and Cinematographer who has filmed on six continents over a long and distinguished career.
