Over the past 25 years, her work has focussed on biophysical inventories in the Yukon, NWT and Alberta. She has authored and contributed to many field guides and papers. Linda now works as a writer and editor when not pursuing her two favorite pastimes: photography and illustration. Andy MacKinnon is a research ecologist with the BC Forest Service and also an adjunct professor at the School of Resource and Environmental Management at SFU.
