Saint Vincent Island is one of the most remote spots in the WFSU viewing area, resting on the western end of Apalachicola Bay. We boat out to this National Wildlife Refuge with author Susan Cerulean and FSU Oceanographer Dr. Jeff Chanton. Hiking along wild beaches and slowly drowning forests, the couple reflects on the origins of the island and its future in the face of sea level rise.
Rob Diaz de Villegas is a senior producer for television at WFSU Public Media, covering outdoors and ecology. After years of producing the music program OutLoud, Rob found himself in a salt marsh with a camera, and found a new professional calling as well. That project, the National Science Foundation funded "In the Grass, On the Reef," spawned the award-winning WFSU Ecology Blog. Now in its tenth year, the Ecology Blog recently wrapped its most ambitious endeavor, the EcoCitizen Project.
Rob is married with two young sons, who make a pretty fantastic adventure squad.
