Michael “Nick” Nichols’ years of work for National Geographic have taken him around the globe, providing an up-close look at some of the few corners of the world that remain untouched by human civilization. His recent work in the Serengeti uses state-of-the-art advances in photo technology to investigate lions, documenting their world and their behaviors with infrared light and flying cameras. Nichols will give an interview at the Paramount on Friday, June 14th, and will sign books later that afternoon at The Haven, where “The Short Happy Life of a Serengeti Lion” will be on display all month.
