ANTHONY PYPER

EXPEDITION DIRECTOR | NATURAL HISTORY PRODUCER & DIRECTOR

Anthony Pyper is an Expedition Director and Emmy® nominated Natural History Producer & Director with more than 14 years experience leading complex expeditions and field programmes in some of the most remote and challenging environments on the planet.  He has led more than 40 expeditions across six continents, and produced & directed landmark natural history projects from Antarctica and the High Arctic to the tropics.

His career has grown from a passion for the natural world and exploration into a role that sits between the field and the bigger picture - leading teams, shaping ambitious ideas and finding ways to make extraordinary things possible in places where very little can be taken for granted.

From working alongside scientists and conservationists to leading multidisciplinary teams and complex field operations, his work sits at the intersection of natural history, exploration, science, conservation and storytelling - on projects where the real challenge begins long before anyone reaches the field.

Everything he does is driven by the same approach: Shape the vision. Find what makes it possible. Bring the right people together. Deliver safely, responsibly and exceptionally well.
