The link below takes you to the Kodak US site which has extensive features on the an and his work. It's centred on his trip to Antarctica with Shackleton in 1914. Well constructed and chocka with information and great stills, it's a real tribute his standing internationally. Plus Hurley had done a deal for Kodak film stock with his local camera shop in Sydney!

Biography of Frank Hurley
"The Endurance" Kodak's tribute to Frank Hurley.

Rumours from the UK that a feature film of Shackleton's Endurance voyage is to be made. Kenneth Branagh being bandied about as Shackleton. Who will play Frank Hurley? Great role for a young Australian.

"Coming soon: the film maker's writer, the late great Terry Southern."
