National Geographic Marine Biologist Will Take Guests On A Deep Dive Into Earth's Massive Underwater Habitat

National Geographic Live, National Geographic's touring speaker series that brings to life the awe-inspiring and remarkable stories of National Geographic Explorers, and Overture Center for the Arts are proud to announce "From Shallows to Seafloor" with Diva Amon is coming to Capitol Theater on Tuesday, Jan. 10 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets ($25-65) are available at overture.org.

Marine biologist Diva Amon's research on unusual deep-sea habitats and species has taken her to extraordinary depths in some of the remotest parts of the planet. Dive in with her to get to know the fascinating creatures in each unique layer of Earth's massive underwater habitat-from the familiar sea creatures near the surface to their otherworldly, alien-like cousins that wander the ocean floor. She'll share stories from her work in the Caribbean, the Pacific and beyond, along with images that shine a light on this vast-and vital-reservoir of biodiversity.
