DESCRIPTION:Camille Seaman will discuss and sign her new book, Melting Away: A Ten-Year 
 Journey Through Our Endangered Polar Regions. Joining her in conversation 
 will be Richard Whittaker.\n\nAs an expedition photographer aboard small 
 ships in the Arctic and Antarctic, Camille Seaman has chronicled the 
 accelerating effects of global warming on the jagged faces of nearly fifty 
 thousand icebergs. Seaman's unique perspective of the landscape is entwined 
 with her Native American upbringing: each responds to its environment 
 uniquely, almost as if they were living beings. Melting Away collects 
 seventy-five of Seaman's most captivating photographs, lifeaffirming images 
 that reveal not only what we have already lost, but more importantly what 
 we still have that is worth fighting to save.\n\nCamille Seaman was born in 
 1969 to a Native American (Shinnecock tribe) father and African American 
 mother. She graduated in 1992 from the State University of New York at 
 Purchase. Her photographs have been published in National Geographic 
 Magazine, Italian Geo, The New York Times Sunday Magazine, Newsweek, Time, 
 Outside, Zeit Wissen, Men's Journal, Camera Arts, German Geo among many 
 others. Camille Seaman lives in Emeryville, California, and takes 
 photographs all over the world using digital and film cameras in multiple 
 formats. She works in a documentary/fine art tradition. She lectures 
 globally about her work and experiences.\n\nRichard Whittaker is the 
 co-founder, with Rue Harrison, of the non-profit Society for the 
 ReCognition of Art and founding editor of the magazine works & 
 conversations. He is also the West Coast editor of Parabola magazine. 
 Although Whittaker has a background in philosophy and clinical psychology 
 and has done graduate work at the GTU in Berkeley, his connections with art 
 go back over forty years including photography, ceramics, painting and 
 sculpture.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2015/03/12/18769829.php
