About this listen
The sixteenth episode of 200 Norwegians tells the story of Campbell Norsgaard, the photographer who risked his life to document Norway under Nazi occupation—and later captured its rebirth. Imprisoned by the Gestapo for taking forbidden photos, Norsgaard escaped and went on to become the official photographer for the Royal Norwegian Air Force at Little Norway in Canada. His lens followed the war across continents—from pilots training in exile to the King’s return after liberation—and later turned toward the quiet wonders of nature in films for the National Geographic Society.
In this episode, I speak with Heather Turner, Norsgaard’s granddaughter, who shares unseen images from the family archive and helps piece together the undocumented story of the documentarian.
