Obama Gets Second Act as National Parks Champion on Netflix
Former President Barack Obama’s next act in retirement: narrating a new nature documentary series on Netflix.
The five-part series “Our Great National Parks” will feature locations around the world and premieres on April 13. Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama entered a multiyear deal with Netflix Inc. in 2018 to create a “diverse mix” of programs through their Higher Ground Productions firm. In conjunction with the series, the Wildlife Conservation Society, Freeborne Impact and Higher Ground have launched Wild For All, an initiative to encourage people experience nature and take steps to protect it, “not only in faraway places, but in the everyday wild at our doorsteps too.”
