ROSMi; SEATTLE
PHOTOGRAPHIC GLOBE TROT
TER. IN SEATTLE. RELATES
EXPERIENCES
Earl Rossman, in Seward a cou
ple of months ago, gave out the fol
lowing interesting interview in
Seattle:
Eighteen years ago in New York
City there was a young man who
thought he. was a square peg in a
round hole, the hole being a New
York law office.
This young man started to wan
der, although six months more in
the law office would have seen him
eligible for the bar examination.
His wanderings led all over the
world as an exploring photograph
er.
Africa. Abyssinia and the Arcuc
Circle, all these are places Earl
Rossman calls home. His real home,
or rather the only place he has
known as a home for the last 18
years is tlie Explorers’ Club in New
York City. But when he sat in his
room at the hotel and told of his
travels it was hard to believe that
he had any address more definite
than a large map of the world.
IN AFRICA HE HAS
hunted big game, doing all his
“hunting” with a camera. He spent
a whole day in getting a few feet
of film of a hippopotamus. The
whole scene lives before your eyes
as tire hippo slowly comes to signt
above the surface of the water, inch
bv inch ears first, then head, then
snout, and bingo! The brute sees
the camera.
Back at the Explorers’ Club he i
has a shield, presented to him by
the Emperor of Abyssinia, which
means that Rossman is the first
American ever to be made an hon
orary general of that country.
AFRICA r t: '•
rly , 'ace 1o which this ambitious
New Yorker wandered. In 192G he
was the official photographer for
the Wilkins Polar Flight Expedition
and correspondent for the Seattle
Times and The North American
Newsoaper Alliance. When he vis
ited The Times he called for the
“morgue” files on that memorable
expedition. Story after story which
he had radioed out of the Arctic
were shown him and Rossman liv
ed over the hardships of the expe
dition as he raed tlie stories he had
sent out, most of which he never
yet seen in print.
Fifty-six days mushing from
iTanana to Point Barrow thru al
most impassable drifts and over
hummocks of ice, with dogs dying
all around them, the men of the,
I expedition suffering from snow
(blindness, and supplies running
low, all of these experiences and
more he relived again. Eight trips
in all are to his credit in Alaska.
He has filmed Eskimos in their pri
vate life and abroad over the ice
