Bill Wallauer is a cinematographer and filmmaker with the Jane Goodall Institute. He’s also a public speaker, scientific advisor and lover of chimpanzees and all wildlife across the globe.

In addition, Bill has served as camera operator and scientific advisor for more than 30 productions, including BBC/Animal Planet’s “Chimp Week,” BBC/Discovery’s 10-part series, “Planet Earth," and Disney Nature’s “Chimpanzee.” He also worked on three National Geographic films and appeared in the Animal Planet special, "Almost Human," with Jane Goodall.
