John Severson, The Surfer's Journal Filmmakers (Full Episode)

In the late '50s, John Severson decided to join Bud Brown as a full-time surf entertainment entrepreneur. With help from his wife Louise, Severson published the first issue of SURFER magazine in 1960 to promote his third movie, Surf Fever -- and demands from the magazine eventually took him away from making surf films.
