Emmy winner Jeff Corwin has been working for the conservation of endangered species and ecosystems around the world for nearly three decades, but he is best known as the host of the Animal Planet show The Jeff Corwin Experience. For his conservation efforts, he was named ambassador of climate change and endangered species on behalf of Defenders of Wildlife, a prominent conservation organization. Corwin’s book, 100 Heartbeats: The Race to Save Earth’s Most Endangered Species, was published in 2010.

The event will feature an audience Q&A and book-signing following Corwin's lecture. Corwin will only be signing Living on the Edge: Amazing Relationships in the Natural World.
