50:43Now PlayingAlexander served as chair of the National Endowment for the Arts from 1993 to 1997; a much lauded actress, her extensive stage and screen career has earned her numerous prizes, including a Tony and two Emmys. Alexander is also an impassioned naturalist, and her book is a global tour of some of the most beautiful and most imperiled landscapes. Visiting places as diverse as Idaho and Ecuador, Myanmar and Newfoundland, Hawaii and East Africa, Alexander follows field scientists as they work to preserve habitat and wildlife, and her rich descriptions remind us of how essential these projects are.
