Ben Cropp swapped spear gun for a camera in 1962, after winning six Australian spear fishing titles and represented Australia at the world titles. His first films were on shark hunting, highly successful, and sold worldwide.
In 1964 Ben won the coveted World Underwater Photographer of the Year, following in the footsteps of Hans Hass and Cousteau, and it was this year that launched him into the US market. He became the first Australian producer to sell to the giant US networks.
Ben has now produced some 150 marine and wildlife adventure documentaries, televised throughout the world, especially in Australia, Germany, Japan, Canada and the USA.
