I remember them well and read many of the National Geographic articles, and a book or two. As a kid we visited the National Geographic headquarters in Wash. DC, and they (the Society, not the brothers) were showing their Craighead episode on Grizzlies.

Much later I learned that a book I read as a child while living in the "concrete jungle," which would change my life, "My Side of the Mountain," was written by their sister, Jean Craighead George.

Much of who I am today interest-wise can be traced to that family. I too would like to know what became of, or has become of them.


If it weren't for the wonder of electricity, you'd be reading this post by candle light!
