Bill Curtsinger: Pioneer of Deep Sea Photography and the First to Photograph a Narwhal

Send us a text

Meet Bill Curtsinger, a pioneer of underwater sea photography. He has many “firsts” to his name including being the first to photograph a narwhal. 

Bill was also my neighbour growing up in Maine and his stories and photographs made a life-long impression. 

I wanted to reconnect with Bill to frame our ocean series discussion. In addition to uncovering his tales of adventure, I was eager to hear how the ocean ecology issues of the late 60s and 70s compare to our concerns now.
