Storytelling fascinates Amy Gulick. In the Tongass National Forest in the Alaska panhandle, Gulick often tells her audience about the salmon in the trees.
Salmon in the trees? Yes.
Please join us virtually on Friday, November 21, 2025, for a Zoom program based on one of the Environmental Impact Award-winning projects now on display at RTPI, The Salmon Way. Attendees will have the chance to hear award-winning photographer Amy Gulick discuss her project and breathtaking images.
In her research, Gulick discovered how many communities (human, bear, and others) build their lives around local salmon populations. Without the salmon, Tongass National Forest would be a very different place.
Gulick did not stop at the publication of her book, The Salmon Way, understanding that the most amazing photos don’t spark change unless people see them. Her photographs have been used in public presentations and workshops, and to make points to land management and legislation authorities on why the Tongass National Forest should be protected. The photographs serve as a means of influence; a teaching and advocacy tool. This is the major goal of her work: to help people understand why we should care, and what we can all be doing.
Amy Gulick is a photographer, author, and public speaker. She is the recipient of multiple awards from conservation and travel foundations, and her images and stories have been featured in the Smithsonian, Audubon, National Wildlife, Sierra, and Outdoor Photographer. Gulick is a founding Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers, a Fellow of the International League of Conservation Writers, and a senior Fellow of The Safina Center. As a resident of Whidbey Island, in the Salish Sea of Washington state, Gulick has spent extensive time exploring the northwest coast and Alaska.
