Summary
Filmmaker Peter Jackson and photographer Doug Niven on this edition of Fresh Air. Peter Jackson directed Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. The film has been nominated for 13 Academy Awards, including Best Director, Best Picture and Screenplay. His other films include Heavenly Creatures and The Frighteners. The New Zealander is also slated to direct the other two upcoming films of the Hobbit trilogy, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Photographer Doug Niven has curated a new show called Another Vietnam: Pictures of the War from the Other Side. It's an exhibition of photos from the Vietnam War, as seen through the lens of North Vietnamese photographers. It runs until March 17, 2002, at the International Center of Photography in Manhattan. It's the first time these photos have been publicly shown. They were locked away in government archives or secretly stored by the photographers. Doug Niven worked as a photographer in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, for Agence France Presse from 1992-1995. (Broadcast date: February 26, 2002)
