33 Men by Jonathan Franklin

Award-winning journalist Jonathan Franklin chronicles the harrowing account of the 33 Chilean miners who were trapped underground for fourteen weeks in the fall of 2010.

Franklin, with his renowned eye for detail and dialogue, captures the remarkable story of these men to reveal to the world how they used their native talents to survive against all odds in a savage environment.

Jonathan Franklin has lived in Chile for over fifteen years, the last twelve as The Guardian (UK) correspondent for Chile. He was a member of the Rescue Team at the site of the Chilean mining catastrophe, and his dispatches appeared in The Guardian, The Washington Post, The Observer (UK), and The Sydney Morning Herald. He captured exclusive footage for ABC News, CNN International, Univision, and the Discovery Channel as a cinematographer at the mine. Franklin is fluent in Spanish and has covered events ranging from Augusto Pinochet's arrest to the inner workings of the cocaine trade throughout his years in South America. His work has appeared in GQ, Esquire, Marie Claire, Playboy, and a variety of other publications. Franklin travels throughout Latin America as cofounder of www.AddictVillage.com, producing reporting for magazines and newspapers around the world. Franklin, an American who was raised in Lincoln, Massachusetts, and attended Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, came to Chile in 1994 with his wife, Toty Garfe, and their six daughters, and his investigative reporting has been used by ABC's Nightline, CBS's 60 Minutes, A&E, the BBC, and several documentary productions throughout the world.
