It's interesting - they did a full hour-long interview, but will likely only use a few snippets ("sound bites"?), since the whole "story" on E.M. will only be a few minutes long! It should include some underwater footage of me taking photos from a recent Cayman Islands trip (either Stingray City or me shooting a jawfish), as well as an assortment of my photos from around the world. Hopefully I won't come off as a total dork (I've never been on TV, so I was pretty nervous for the interview!).
The reporter who interviewed me (Michael King) seemed quite intrigued by sharks, and I'm concerned that the whole focus will be sharks, and that they'll try to sensationalize it, rather than using my comments about shark conservation, shark-fin soup, etc. I do know they're going to discuss a current exhibit of my photos at the Clyde Hill Tully's, which includes a 5-foot high print of my "Cheshire Cat Grin" (my avatar at right), which was on display in the Smithsonian last year because it won the Oceans category of Nature's Best Photography's big competition.
Anyway, this is all part of my "15 minutes" - all triggered by taking one lucky shot of a shark that looks like he's grinning! Go figure!
