Born in 1923, Stan was a blueberry farmer in Maine for a while, and then in the 1950's he converted a fishing trawler into a charter dive boat and angled the bow toward the Bahamas. For a decade he eked out a living traveling the back roads of America showing his hand-spliced films. In 1965 Stan took his family to live and play in Tahiti. Success was launched when National Geographic purchased rights to their tropical odyssey. Later he directed underwater photography for the film version of The Deep, followed by ten years of production work with friend Peter Benchley for ABC - in the process he garnered five Emmys. This is adventurous story of his life.Waterman, Stan is the author of 'Sea Salt Memories & Essays', published 2005 under ISBN 9781878348401 and ISBN 187834840X.
