 | Jacques Cousteau by Bank Street College of Education, Bank Street Staff
From the Amazon River to the Antartic Ice Shelf, Jacques Costeau and his undersea explorations were made world-famous through award winning television and film documentaries, through which Cousteau made known both the beauty and the environmental plight of the oceans. While his nationality was French, Cousteau was truly a citizen of the world. A Renaissance man, his work as an environmentalist is hailed by marine biologists; and his inventions, the aqua-lung and the one-man submarine, ushered in a new era of underwater discovery. His research vessel Calypso was featured on and made famous by the much-beloved television series, The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau, which begain in 1968 and aired on Tv for 8 years. Jacques Cousteau: Explorer of the Deep Seas, follows the thrilling story of this hero of the ocean from his childhood as a young inventor, to his days working as a spy for the French Army in World War II, to his development of the Cousteau Society, dedicated to the protection of ocean life and still going strong with 300,000 members worldwide. In 1985, Cousteau was awarded the Medal of Freedom from President Reagan and, until his death in 1997--at the age of 87!--Cousteau never stopped championing the deep blue seas.
