Between assignments Gary earned a masters degree in journalism from Columbia University, worked as a newspaper and radio reporter in Buffalo and San Francisco, and married fellow author Liza Prado. Gary has worked on fifteen guidebooks in all, and has published various online articles, mostly on travel in Mexico and Latin America. This assignment took Gary back to some favorite spots, from Calakmul to Cozumel, and Mérida to Mahahual.
