Robert Henry Nixon is an American film director, writer and conservationist. His films, often focused on the battles of tribal peoples and field biologists, include ''Amazon Diary'', ''America The Beautiful'', ''The End of the Game'', ''Fossey's War'', ''Gorillas in the Mist'', ''Endangered Species'', ''The Last Rivermen'', ''American Heroes'', ''Mission Blue'', ''Great White Highway'', ''The Lord God Bird'', ''Peter Beard's Africa: Last Word From Paradise'', ''The Flight Of Double Eagle II'', ''So Long Lady'' and ''The Falconer.'' == Early life and education ==
Nixon was born in 1954. His father, Robert, was an executive with Chrysler; his mother, Agnes Nixon, the creator of ''One Life to Live'' and ''All My Children'', is regarded as a pioneer in bringing social consciousness to daytime television. Raised in a Philadelphia suburb, Nixon aspired to be a field biologist but academic challenges at Episcopal Academy led him to England, where he was an apprentice falconer to Master Falconer Phillip Glasier. He subsequently searched the rainforest of Guyana to study and photograph the little-known ornate hawk eagle and the harpy eagle. Returning to America, Nixon established a Raptor education program at The Wildlife Preserve under the guidance of master falconer Jim Fowler, the co-host of ''Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom''.〔
