Ansel Adams (S14E11)

Ric Burns explores the life of the renowned photographer whose bond with Yosemite is so profound that a mountain in the area bears his name. Ansel Adams, who lived from 1902 to 1984, first set foot in Yosemite at the age of 14, a moment that, according to his former business manager William Turnage, "completely changed his life." After receiving a Kodak Box Brownie from his father, as narrator David Ogden Stiers notes, "he was off" on his photographic journey. Adams’ legacy is reflected upon by colleagues, biographers, and his own children.
