Importing folder structure of images into iPhoto

Does anyone know of a way in which I can import a multi-level folder structure full of images into iPhoto, so that each folder gets imported as its own individual album? ...and if the particular folder happens to be nested within another folder, then that folder would be imported into iPhoto as an album which appears nested within an iPhoto folder?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks!

In order to preserve your organization, you will need to import folder by folder. Sorry! Each folder will be imported as a "roll" (if you are using iPhoto prior to 7) or an "event" if you are using 7. You create your own albums after that by putting whatever you want into them. In the album view, you can have folders ("Vacations", "Birthdays", etc.) and then albums under them ("2007", "Johnny's 5th", etc.). Those you create yourself from the rolls or events that iPhoto creates.
