Presentation
Our guest for the evening is Ms. Jill Heinerth. Jill is an explorer who uses her creative talents and photographic skill to give us a peek at a breathtaking world few will ever experience. An award-winning filmmaker, Jill wrote, produced, and appeared in Water’s Journey, the PBS documentary series that takes viewers on travels through the world’s greatest water systems. Hollywood directors call on her to produce difficult underwater scenes and international magazines and websites look to her to document extreme environments using high technology. Jill’s many accomplishments are highlighted by an Antarctic cave diving expedition inside the largest iceberg known to man, (National Geographic – Ice Island), and significant contributions to other National Geographic and US Deep Cave Diving Team expeditions. Some of Jill’s numerous professional diving, photographic, and filmmaking awards include being named a “Living Legend” by Sport Diver Magazine, being inducted into the Women Divers Hall of Fame, and being named Canadian Technical Diver of the Year.
For our special evening, Jill will be sharing several phenomenal adventures and lessons learned from her journeys through the planet’s water-filled veins. The presentation, The World Beneath Our Feet, highlights not only the thrills to be found in exploring some of the world’s most remote places, but also looks at the continuing impact of man on these pristine environments. Only recently has the technology existed to allow divers to explore such previously inaccessible worlds. As we travel ever further we continue to discover the fragile nature of the world we live in. With video clips and images from some of her award-winning works, the presentation promises to engage as well as educate.
