Authors Dana and Ginger Lamb Event
The Adventurers' Foundation will present "Quest for the Lost City"
(1954) in a Special Event screening at The Raleigh Studios in Hollywood, California on Saturday May 29, 2004. This will be the first time the Sol Lesser RKO feature documentary by noted husband-and-wife explorer/writing team of Dana and Ginger Lamb will be seen by the public in 50 years. Also attending will be Maria Lamb, as a Special Honored Guest. "Quest for the Lost City" is the documentary account of the remarkable trek across 2000 miles of trackless Mexican and Guatemalan jungle undertaken by Dana and Ginger Lamb. Traveling by foot, horseback, dugout canoe, Model-T Ford, jeep, and airplane the Lambs traveled down the western edge of Mexico, crossing the Sonora Desert into the jungles of Chiapas. The Lambs' claim of discovery of a lost Mayan city - "Laxtunich" - deep in the Mexican jungle was discounted as a fabrication at the time by many. Today, however, more and more scholars believe the Lambs well may have actually discovered an ancient lost city. In addition to the screening, the program will include a panel discussion of people connected with the film, and also a silent auction of Dana and Ginger Lamb memorabilia. The event will benefit both The Adventurers' Foundation Expedition Fund and The Young Adventurers' Education Fund. For information about this event you may contact Adventurers' Foundation President, Pierre Odier at (323) 254-1549. |
