The Sages Among Us

Jeff Litton, Photography Instructor and Environmental Filmmaker


Listen Later

Host Taylor Wolfe leads our discovery into the life and adventures of photography instructor and environmental filmmaker Jeff Litton. Jeff’s work has been published in National Geographic  and many other environmental publications. Growing up in Nevada County, he attended Nevada Union High School where he got great ideas and inspiration about doing something you love and figuring out how to be paid for it. College in Santa Barbara and early work as a shipboard videographer gave him an environmental focus. The South Yuba River Citizens League’s Wild and Scenic Film Festival changed his life, sparking a passion for environmental stewardship and making environmental films. Patiently setting wildlife camera traps eventually resulted in exclusive footage of a wolverine in Nevada County. The proposed Centennial Dam on the Bear River brought Jeff’s filmmaking closer to home, where he filmed to support the local Nisenan tribe. A recent project chronicling the amazing accomplishments of the Bear Yuba Land Trust will soon be viewable. Learn how he came to be called “Gringo Loco” at the Galapagos Islands. A compilation of Jeff’s work can be viewed at UGENA.com and Instagram.com/jeff_litton.
