Thomas D. Mangelsen, a Nebraska native, is a renowned nature and wildlife photographer whose work captures Earth’s wildest landscapes and animals with striking clarity and emotional resonance. Mangelsen learned the skills of patience and observing animal behavior from his father during trips to the Platte River, which shaped his approach to photographing wildlife. Mangelsen’s style emphasizes awe-inspiring, fine art imagery that highlights both the beauty and vulnerability of nature, continuing the tradition of photographers like Ansel Adams and Eliot Porter. His work has been widely recognized for its impact on conservation, earning him honors such as Conservation Photographer of the Year from Nature’s Best Photography and inclusion in Jane Goodall’s “Heroes of the Animal Planet,” and he has been featured in major media and public speaking engagements promoting wildlife protection.
