Last summer I visited Yellowstone for the first time and was struck by the story of how the art made of the place sold Congress on making it into a national park - the first national park, in fact. I took lots of photos of the art intending to begin a class series on environmentalists and visual media with this story.
Now a new PBS documentary (made by local filmmakers in Wyoming) chronicles the tale in its full glory. See the film's web site for details: Drawn to Yellowstone. Check out the video clips on the site - it looks quite good. Peter Coyote narrates.
