Sauna Talk #002: Brian Peterson

We are joined on the bench with Brian Peterson, acclaimed photographer.  Honored nine times as Minnesota Press Photographer of the Year, Peterson has covered major stories including; Russia before and after the fall of the Soviet Union, the Exxon Valdez oil spill,  the 1987 and 91 Minnesota Twins World Series victories, Olympic Games in Nagano, Japan, Salt Lake City and Vancouver just to name a few. Recently Peterson has focused his camera on environmental issues, including a six-month study of the pollution in the Minnesota River.  The yearlong feature called "Voices for the Land", explored the issues surrounding land use and urban sprawl in the state. On the bench, we discuss his latest book project "State of Wonders".  A fabulous book illustrating the four corners of Minnesota during the four distinct seasons of the year.
