Saving wild horses in the West.

Host Allison Milionis speaks with Ginger Kathrens, the documentary filmmaker of the PBS series, Cloud: Wild Stallion of the Rockies. They will discuss the plight of wild horses in the West and the work of the Cloud Foundation, a Colorado 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, that grew out of Ginger Kathrens’ knowledge and fear for not only Cloud’s herd but other wild horses in the West.

Ginger Kathrens is an Emmy Award-winning producer, cinematographer, writer and editor and author. She filmed and produced the acclaimed Cloud: Wild Stallion of the Rockies and Cloud’s Legacy. Her documentation of Cloud represents the only continuing chronicle of a wild animal from birth in our hemisphere.

Kathrens was the co-producer and cinematographer of the two-hour Discovery Channel special, Spirits of the Rainforest, which won two Emmy Awards including one for Best Documentary. Additional projects for Discovery included The Ultimate Guide: Horses and The Ultimate Guide: Dogs. Kathrens also wrote, edited, and produced over two dozen segments of the Wild America series for PBS, and has filmed for National Geographic, Animal Planet and the BBC.
