Figure
Dr. Arthur C. Twomey, explorer-scientist, ornithologist, author, and pictorial artist, brings to his audiences thrilling and personally photographed color films of far away places with an authentic and brilliant commentary. His broad scientific background, his flair for artistic photography and his interest in the peoples of the world combine to make his lectures not only educational, but entertaining and diverting.
The fact that the Washington University Association has invited Dr. Twomey to lecture four times in as many years proves that we consider his work to be of the highest merit, from the point of view both of photography and worthwhile commentary. The Washington University Association, Saint Louis, Mo.
We can always rely on Dr. Twomey for an entertaining film and an intelligent commentary … each of his three appearances here has been a delight, he is indeed a camera artist. National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.
