Sea Salt

In 1965 National Geographic purchased rights to Stan Waterman's tropical odyssey with his family to Tahiti. A stellar string of ventures followed with his work on the 1968 shark classic Blue Water, White Death. A few years later he directed underwater photography for the film, The Deep followed by ten years of work with his friend Peter Benchley on ABC's American Sportsman - earning him five Emmys.

Sea Salt is the handiwork of a born storyteller with a flair for language as stoked with imagery and insight as his films. Liberally sprinkled with humor, verve and singular turns of phrase, his autobiography and selected writings deftly portray the joys travails of a diving pioneer and legend. 287 pages including 71 photographs.
