The mission of the Alaska Teen Media Institute is to provide teens with the tools and training needed to produce stories and with the opportunity for their stories - told in their own voices - to be shared through a variety of media. ATMI believes the teen perspective is valuable and under-represented. The Alaska Teen Media Institute is a program under the umbrella of Spirit of Youth, 501 (c)(3).

The Anchorage Daily News is the most widely read newspaper in Alaska. When journalists are writing a news story, photos can be just as important as the stories themselves. ADN staff photographer Marc Lester has been working with the paper for over 25 years taking photos for news, sports, feature stories, and standalone pictures of nature in Alaska.
ATMI producer Micheal Hunter sat down with Marc to talk about his work. They discuss Marc’s early days as a photographer, some of the standout moments in his career, and his advice for budding journalists.
Hosted by Xander Rose. Written and produced by Taylor Heckart.
Music by Kendrick Whiteman and Devin Shreckengost.
