About the host

Hosted by Alice Gibb

I am a college professor and I live and teach biology in Flagstaff, Arizona. If you search online for my first name plus my last name (Gibb) and Northern Arizona University then you will quickly find my academic website to see the kind of work I do,

My husband and I have been married for almost 30 years and we have two bookish college-aged boys. We enjoy reading, gardening, cooking, hiking, kayaking, camping and traveling. Because we live in a quiet mountain town, our favorite places to visit tend to be either big cities or beaches. We spend as much of our vacation time on the Big Island of Hawaii as possible!
