Film	A Land Between Rivers
Documentaries	Commissioned by the Fresno Historical Society; Funded by the people of Table Mountain Rancheria; Produced
	bv Full Frame Productions
	Narrated by Rita Moreno, and filmed in high-definition video, A Land Between Rivers uses aerials, archival
	stills, rare footage, and interviews with long time residents and historians to tell this unique story.
	A Land Between Rivers tells the story of central California between the San Joaquin and Kings Rivers. The
	history of this region has played a critical role in determining the destiny of both California and the West. It is a
	story of transformation---from pre-settlement to the Gold Rush to post-war prosperity---where the nexus of
	land, water, and people seeking a better future have created the most productive agricultural region on earth.
	The program reveals the human and environmental sacrifices in the shadow of this success, and shows how
	issues of concern in times past remain relevant today as central California faces the future
	Extra features: Extended interviews; Additional stills and footage; Spanish language version; Closed caption

Biography	A Passion For Stewardship
	Richard A. Johanson
	"Some years ago former NBC News Anchor Tom Brokaw wrote a book entitled " The
	Greatest Generation." As a member of that generation I have reflected often on the
	circumstances that caused him to describe my generation as he did. Those of us who
	are part of it lived through the stock market crash of 1929. We lived through the Great
	Depression. We survived the horrors of World War II. We were advocates for
	democracy during détente of the Cold War and the social agonies of the Viet Nam era..
	Currently, we are sharing the dangers and tensions of secular terrorism. Through all of
	this, my generation has struggled passionately to bring about a world of peace with
	opportunity for a life free from hunger and strife."

California	bear in mind: The California Grizzly
	Edited by Susan Snyder
	"Bear in Mind is the story of the California grizzly: once the most powerful and terrifying animal in the
	California landscape, he now lives in the imagination, a disembodied symbol of the romantic West. The book
	provides a history of the changing depiction of the bear, from the savage, voracious creation of frontier
	myth to the cuddly mascot of today. Bear in Mind is also a portal to one of California's great resources, The
	Bancroft Library of the University of California at Berkeley. More than one hundred and fifty images from the
	library's collections - newspaper illustrations from the gold rush, paintings from early scientific expeditions,
	photo albums, sheet music, settlers' diaries, fruit-crate labels, and more - accompany the bear stories of
	Indians, explorers, vaqueros, forty-niners, and naturalists, among others. The result is a compelling natural
	history, a grand book worthy of its subject.
