Jay and Chrissy Kleberg Discuss Chasing The Tide

We are thrilled to welcome the Texas-based documentary filmmaker and photographer duo, Jay and Chrissy Kleberg, to talk about their new book, Chasing the Tide! They will be joining us on Thursday, August 21st at 7PM for a conversation and book signing.

About the Book:

Chasing the Tide is a deep dive into the wildlife and conservation stories showcased in the six-part documentary series. The book is filled with stunning imagery, illustrations, and hand-drawn maps that help tell the Texas Gulf Coast's human and natural history. Part adventure chronicle and part photographic journal, Chasing the Tide offers a personal and on-the-ground report of this epic 21-day, and 370 mile trek across Texas’ seven barrier islands.

About the Klebergs:

Jay is the executive director of the Gulf Trust and previously served as associate director of Texas Parks Wildlife Foundation. He co-produced the award-winning documentary films and co-wrote the accompanying books associated with Deep in the Heart: A Texas Wildlife Story and The River and the Wall.

Chrissy is a former wildlife field biologist and photographer. She has conducted avian research and reintroduction work with the U.S. Geological Survey, University of Florida, and The Peregrine Fund in Hawaii, Florida, New Mexico, and Texas.
