KQED Life: Sat, Feb 23, 2013 -- 3:00 PM
East Africa is a vast stage on which the circular, never-ending journey known as the Great Migration has played out for millions of years.

Japan: Hokkaido and Honshu (Episode #201)
KQED Life: Sat, Feb 9, 2013 -- 3:00 PM
The image many of us have of Japan is congested and kinetic. But Japan has a wild side. In winter, beyond its crowded cities, the country delivers quiet, unexpected natural beauty. In the second season opener, Art Wolfe ventures north to the remote region of Hokkaido to view iconic red-crested cranes; south to the mountains to take a dip in Nagano's hot springs with mischievous macaque snow monkeys; and journeys on to the sacred temples of Mt. Fuji and Koyosan on a photographic pilgrimage.
Ethiopia: The Omo Valley (Episode #113)
KQED Life: Sat, Feb 2, 2013 -- 3:00 PM
Ethiopia is like no other place in Africa. Some of the isolated animist tribes who have lived there for centuries are still unaware that they reside in a country called Ethiopia. In this episode, Art ventures into the Omo Valley, Ethiopia's nearly inaccessible and richest tribal zone. After enduring muddy, impassable roads and swollen rivers, he makes his way to the Hamer, Karo and remote Surma tribes. He documents the tribes' unique body painting, elaborate adornments and timeless ceremonies.
