Evolutionary philosopher Brian Thomas Swimme, whose stories awaken us to the beauty and complexity of our planet, hosts Journey.
The film was written by Swimme and Yale historian of religions Mary Evelyn Tucker and produced by Tucker and her husband John Grim. It has been shown nationwide on PBS and won a regional Emmy for best documentary in June.Following the film there will be a panel discussion featuring executive producers Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim.doddcenter.uconn.edu/events/teale/teale - 860.486.4500
