Wild America
Wild America is a television show which focuses on the creatures and wild lands of North America. By the mid-1970s, Marty Stouffer had put a few full length documentaries together. He approached the programming managers at Public Broadcasting Service in regards to a wildlife series, the first to focus upon fauna and the flora of North America. PBS signed for the rights to broadcast Marty Stouffer's series Wild America at 1982. The series went on to become perhaps one of the popular aired by PBS, renowned for its use of film techniques like closeups and slow motion, in addition to its unflinching portrayal of nature. Stouffer made $135,000 per series.
The production of the show ran from 1982 to 1994. The show is no further on PBS. Re-runs air in syndication on commercial television through much of the United States. In 1997, Warner Brothers published a feature picture entitled Wild America, that has been based on his brothers and the biographical narrative of Marty Stouffer, Mark and Marshall.
