About this Event

An ode to the remarkable variety of life in the Hudson Valley, The Nature of Nature: Biodiversity in the Hudson Valley celebrates the living fabric of this unique landscape. From high elevation forests to the globally rare tidal marshes along the Hudson estuary, the 30-minute documentary film captures the beautiful, the complex, the familiar, and the unknown… guided by the plants, animals, and people that call the Hudson Valley home.

Carl Herzog, Biologist featured in The Nature of Nature

Dr. Mary Beth Kolozsvary, Department Chair and Professor of Environmental Studies and Sciences, Siena University

Dr. Denise Mayer, Malacology Collections Manager and Director of the New York State Museum’s Field Research Laboratory
