Gail began her professional career as a Peace Corps volunteer in East Central Africa. Upon returning to the United States, she has pursued her passion for learning and teaching about the natural world through positions with national non-profits such as American Forests, local grassroots wilderness and nature centers such as Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve, and developed and delivered educational programs for the City of Austin Wildlands Division. When Gail is not writing, she can be found in her vegetable and flower gardens, at her weaving loom, or hiking in nearby wild areas.","sameAs":["https:\/\/gailmcglamery.com\/","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/gail.mcglamery.92","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/gailmcglamery\/?hl=en","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/gail-mcglamery-4337706b\/"],"url":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/author\/gail-mcglamery\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2122268","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/123863"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2122268"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2122268\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2122269"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2122268"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2122268"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/banffnationalpark.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2122268"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
