These are just a few of the many, many wonderful people that help to create this amazing program. We are blessed to capture images of rare native birds and plants in the pristine tropical rain forest, hike among the giant tree ferns, fly past fiery lava fountains and dive to the ocean’s floor to witness amazing formations of pillow lava.
And then there is the history… one of my favorite parts. I spend countless hours at the Hawaii State Archives, Bishop and Lyman House Museums, HVNP Archives and USGS Library… pouring through albums, pictures, film clips, catalogues, diaries and notebooks. I collect anything and everything of interest that I can find on HVNP throughout recorded history, in attempt to do the most comprehensive documentary ever.

The result is a 70-minute program that is completed in 1996… over two years from start to finish! “VolcanoScapes V” is unequivocally the most comprehensive historical program ever assembled on Hawaii Volcanoes National Park!
As I said, I don’t do this alone… I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the many people from the National Park Service, the US Geological Survey, Hawaiian Volcanoes Observatory, National Biological Service, as well as many, many others who have made all our programs a reality. Are hats are off to them, for without their support, this project would not have been possible. Mahalo Nui Loa!
