Yosemite National Park is primarily known for its world class scenery and, as a result, the park’s wildlife is unfortunately often overlooked. Robb will give for a presentation highlighting the diversity of Yosemite’s incredible wildlife and how he creates images that tell their stories. He’ll share natural history anecdotes and the experiences behind capturing images over the past 30 years.

Robb is the photographer of the recently published book, Yosemite Wildlife, written by conservationist Beth Pratt. He’s also the author and photographer of The Nature of Yosemite: A Visual Journey, both published by the Yosemite Conservancy.

This event is free and open to the public, with snacks and refreshments provided. We will have copies of Yosemite Wildlife and The Nature of Yosemite available in the store; no RSVP is required to attend.
