Biography: Gail Willumsen produces, directs and writes long-form documentary films and videos for clients like National Geographic Television, WGBH/NOVA, Vulcan Productions, and the Discovery Channel. Through her company Gemini Productions, and with her producing partner Jill Shinefield, Willumsen has chased down stories all over the world, on a wide range of topics. Her expertise and personal interests lie in projects that explore the human experience, especially these themes: • the complex and enduring bond between people and animals • the unraveling of humankind’s roots and history through archaeology and anthropology • the profound impact of science and technology on the course of human history – past, present and future. Willumsen’s work has been recognized with three Emmy Awards, a Peabody Award and many other US and international kudos. But the real reward, says Willumsen, “is the work itself - the research, the travel, and the incredible generosity of strangers who allow us into their lives, so that we can help tell their stories.”
