Stewart Udall: The Politics of Beauty is a feature length documentary (78 mins) that examines the trajectory of Udall's life from his childhood through his Mormon mission, his World War II service, his student years at the University of Arizona, his time in Congress, and then, most significantly, his years as Secretary of the Interior under the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, focusing on his effectiveness as a dedicated, bi-partisan public servant.
Udall tried always to acknowledge his mistakes while also doing his best to find common ground within the political process and was the first public official to speak out about global warming.
Secretary Udall was a well-respected author who called on all Americans to move away from our emphasis on economic growth and consumerism toward quality of life, and a new political ethos centered on beauty, simplicity, appreciation of nature and the arts, and a recognition of Earth's limits - a message that still resonates today!
A community conversation will follow immediately after the film.
