Biographical NoteReturn to Top
Ruth and Louis Kirk were a husband and wife team of filmmakers who made numerous documentaries over a decades-long career across the American Northwest and West. Acclaimed Washington naturalist Ruth Kirk achieved lasting success, most notably as a writer, but also as a photographer and filmmaker working in close collaboration with her husband Louis Kirk to create films and television programs focusing on the natural spaces of the Northwest, Southwest, and Canada, wildlife, archaeology and historic preservation, and Native American communities.
The daughter of a physician and a chemical engineer, Ruth Kratz was born in 1925 and spent her formative years in Los Angeles. During her studies at Occidental College, Ruth met Louis Kirk, a young coast guardsman serving in the area and they married in 1943. At the end of the Second World War, Louis pursued his education, earning degrees in natural sciences, psychology, and education. Louis was interested in working outdoors, and in 1947 became a ranger and naturalist with the National Park Service (NPS). During almost 20 years with the NPS, Louis served in a succession of posts in the Southwest, North and South Dakota, Olympic National Park and Mount Rainier National Park, along with special assignments in England and Washington D.C. In his work as a naturalist, he was frequently asked to create attention-grabbing visitor presentations and museum exhibits to tell the story of America's national parks.
Ruth frequently worked with her husband as an active partner on a range of official and unofficial projects. She also nurtured an avid personal interest in nature photography, and soon began publishing photo-essays for the Seattle Times . Ruth published a substantial number of articles in the Seattle Times, Smithsonian, Natural History , and the New York Times Book Review , among others. Ruth began writing non-fiction books at this time, co-authoring the guidebook Death Valley (1954), for which photographer and friend Ansel Adams, provided the pictures. This would be the first of her 36 published books to date, with topics ranging through ecology, anthropology, archaeology, history, and natural science.
When Louis retired from the NPS in 1967, he was offered a position with the KPEC (later KCPQ), a television station run by the Clover Park School District in Lakewood, Washington. Influenced by Louis’ experience with interpretative presentation, as well as their deep affection for the National Park system, the Kirks soon shifted into a new career producing films. While Louis usually served as the principal cameraperson, at one time or another Ruth acted as producer, editor, scriptwriter, still photographer, actor, and narrator for the films they created. Ruth and Louis created curriculum filmstrips, films, and broadcast documentary programming for use in the classroom and on television that were produced primarily for the Clover Park School District Public Broadcasting Systems and distributed by the University of Washington Press. The Kirks also produced content for other organizations during this time, including the NPS, Tacoma Public Utilities, and for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation’s long-running series Klahanie: The Great Outdoors .
Their films concentrated on natural and environmental themes, especially within the setting of those National Parks already familiar to them. Ruth and Louis crisscrossed the Western United States for many years, along with occasional side-trips to Canada, Mexico, and Japan, filming the landscape. They also recorded the traditions of the indigenous communities of the Northwest and Southwest. The Kirks developed several close creative relationships with Native American communities living along the Northwestern coast. Their relationship with the Makah of the Olympic Peninsula developed during production of their film The Tribe and the Professor . The film looked at the collaboration between archaeologists from Western Washington University led by Dr. Richard Daugherty and the Makah during the Ozette archaeological dig at Neah Bay, Washington. The discoveries at Ozette, the Makah community, and archaeology in Washington became a subject visited repeatedly over the course of the Kirks' long filmmaking career.
The Kirks became well-known during the production of their local PBS series Kirks' Camera (1976-1978). This series concentrated on environmental themes and settings reminiscent of their other work, but here the Kirks would appear in front of the camera as well as behind it, serving as guides for the audience to learn from and follow each month. This series was a wide-ranging fusion of travelogue and nature documentary. Each episode followed the Kirks as they embarked on a trip into the field, perhaps to hike the shipwreck coast of Vancouver Island, to explore land ethic in Japan, or to observe the daily life of Washington’s Olympic Marmot.
The Kirks continued to make films for 14 years after the end of Kirks' Camera , until the death of Louis in 1992. In the years following, Ruth put aside filmmaking in favor of her writing career, and has subsequently produced works on the Olympic Rain Forest, Washington Archaeology, and Mount Rainier National Park, among others. Ruth has been repeatedly recognized for excellence over the course of her long career, earning the Washington State Governor’s Writer’s Award, the Pacific Northwest History Award, and a short-listing for the National Book Award, among others. In 2007, Ruth married long-time friend and collaborator Richard D. Daugherty, an anthropologist and archaeologist retired from Washington State University.
Content DescriptionReturn to Top
The collection contains production elements and final prints for approximately 110 projects (films, television episodes, and filmstrips) produced by the Kirks from 1967 to 1991. The collection is made up of approximately 1,700 reels of film, filmstrips and audio materials. Much of the collection documents the Kirks’ career as producers for television shows such as Klahanie on the CBC in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Kirks’ Camera on KCPQ in Tacoma, WA. Also represented are the educational films and filmstrips produced on behalf of the Clover Park School District, the University of Washington Press, and the US National Park Service.
Other Descriptive InformationReturn to Top
The Kirks were often producing films using very limited financial resources and, as a result, they used the same footage for a number of different projects. They also revisited particular themes repeatedly over the course of their career and frequently used the same footage for a variety of purposes, depending upon the needs of the particular film or television program. For example, footage of a Quinault elder carving a canoe might be seen in Indian canoes along the Washington coast , The Tribe and the Professor and in both the Kirks' Camera and the Klahanie episodes of Heritage in Cedar . These types of links between projects are noted in each
Dates for Kirks' Camera were determined by documentation kept in the Ruth Kirk Manuscript Collection (Acc. No. 4166), while approximate dates for Klahanie were determined by notes left on film elements as well as external research. All other dates refer to date of physical publication.

Heritage of the Sea In the viewpoint of Makah Indians, fishing is an ancient and
fundamental way of life guaranteed them in perpetuity by their 1855 treaty
agreement with the United States Government. Part one of the film includes
reminiscences by the Makahs about their past and comments on the future of
their tribal salmon management programs. Part two is a defense by Makah
fishermen and elders of their treaty rights to fish for salmon and a discussion
of their previous relinquishment of whaling, sealing and halibut rights
guaranteed to them by treaty. Artifacts dealing with fishing found at Hoko
River and Ozette are also demonstrated.

Television Episodes, Klahanie, 1973-1977Return to Top
Klahanie was a half-hour television program that aired on the CBC in Vancouver from 1967-1978. The title came from a Chinook word meaning "outside or "the outdoors." The show presented wilderness and outdoor activities with a focus on conservation and tried to bring viewers to beautiful, often inaccessible destinations in British Columbia, the Pacific Northwest and beyond. The show was produced by Andy Snider and was hosted by Bob Fortune from 1967-1972 and later by Don White. The Kirks contributed content to Klahanie from 1973 through 1977, including programs about Japanese National Parks, the Japanese land ethic, the Ozette Archaeological Dig, preserving historic sites in Scotland, and a visit to Atlin, B.C.
Few episodes of Klahanie appear to have survived and there are no complete programs within the Kirk collection. There are scripts, audio tracks and edited films that appear to have aired on Klahanie, but there are no finished prints and nothing with identifying titles and credits. Information about these particular films was taken from notes on and in film cans and from leader on reels. The shows were often re-edited with new narration and used for Kirks' Camera productions on KCPQ-TV in Lakewood, Washington.

Television Episodes, Kirks' Camera, 1976-1978Return to Top
Kirks' Camera was a monthly half-hour series that aired on KCPQ Television in Lakewood, Washington from January 1976 to May 1978. The show was produced by the Kirks in conjunction with the Media Department of the Clover Park School District 400. Louis was the show's cinematographer, director, and editor while Ruth wrote scripts, narrated and appeared in many episodes. The show explored man's impact on the environment as well as the lifestyle and traditions of indigenous communities across the Northwest and Southwest U.S. Each episode was formatted as a travelogue, following the Kirks and their companions as they embarked on a trip into the field, perhaps to hike the shipwreck coast of Vancouver Island, to explore land ethic in Japan, or to observe the daily life of Washington’s Olympic Marmot.

Hesquiat /'Ksan [Kasaan] A comparison between the Hesquiat and Tsimishian Indian tribes
of British Columbia, approaches and dilemmas towards preserving and maintaining
cultural and tribal heritage. The Kirks first visit the Hesquiat tribe along
with archaeologists looking for clues into the tribal past. The original
village of Hesquiat was moved in the 1920s and destroyed in 1965 by the Alaskan
earthquake and subsequent tidal wave and a modern village was established in
its place. The Kirks visit the Provincial Museum in Victoria, BC, where
Hesquiat heritage is being preserved. They next visit the villages of
Kitwancool and Kitwanga and Kispiox and 'Ksan [Kasaan] of the Tsimishian Indian
tribe. The Tsimishian people maintain their culture by inhabiting their
original land and practicing the old ways: totem pole carving, longhouse
building, and holding potlatches (ancient rituals of song and dance). They
sustain cultural and tribal unity through commissioned totem pole carving and
touring dance groups. The program focuses on how Hesquiat and Tsimishian
Indians maintain tribal unity and values in a modern world.

Heritage of the Sea, Makah Treaty Rights - Part I &
II Pacific salmon became the foundation of a major fishing industry
in the Northwest and the subject of a bitter struggle between the Indian Tribes
and the white society which surrounded them. The right to fish was presumably
guaranteed to the Makah tribe by the treaties of 1854 and 1855 made with the
United States. The legal conflict has revolved around interpreting the language
of the fishing right clauses of the treaties. The episode explores the lack of
public understanding concerning the indigenous perspectives on treaty fishing
rights. Ruth and Louis Kirk listen to the Makah people tell their side of the
story.
This was split into two Kirks'
Camera episodes, but appears to be conceived as a single project, and so
is treated as such in the organization.
