Barry Goldwater: Photographs and Memories

More from this show

He is known worldwide as a politician and statesman, but this is the story of the man behind the camera and the passion for photography and Arizona that shaped his life.

Narrated by Hugh Downs, the program features photographs taken during the 1930s and 1940s as Goldwater traveled throughout Arizona capturing images of indigenous people and landscapes.

It showcases Goldwater’s photography, which has been exhibited in galleries from Milan to Tokyo, and recalls a life in Arizona that is gone forever. 30 minutes.
