Can we book her for a talk in Ottawa? Apparently it's free. From SB:
Jill Heinerth is returning to her native Canada in August 2007 and would enjoy giving multi-media presentations to Dive Clubs, SCUBA shop groups and social organizations. Jill is an inductee of the Women Divers Hall of Fame, Canadian Technical Diver of the Year, and is famous throughout the world for producing, writing and appearing in television programs for PBS, National Geographic and Discovery Channel. A recipient of the coveted Cine Golden Eagle and Explorer's Club award, Jill continues to write and produce some of the most meaningful nature-based documentary films of our time. She has also been a technical director, safety officer and stunt double for major Hollywood diving movies.

Jill Heinerth completed a women's World Record while exploring Wakulla Springs on the United States Deep Caving Team?s Wakulla2 project ? a cave dive that took her to depths exceeding 300 feet on a 22-hour mission.
Diving extreme environments is Jill's underwater passion. Jill led a team of divers inside the largest floating object ever known on earth: the B-15 iceberg in Antarctica. The popular documentary film "Ice Island" chronicles this dangerous and paradigm-shifting exploration in one of the planet's most hostile environments. Recently, Jill traveled to eastern Siberia where she trained a Russian cave diving film crew in a remote Ural Mountain cave system - the first North American to dive this long forbidden Soviet Cold War military area.
Jill is one of the world's top technical diving instructors and students travel from Austria, Switzerland, Britain, Denmark, Australia, Canada and all over the United States to train with her. She is a recognized Sidemount Cave Diving and Closed Circuit Rebreather expert.
A very talented underwater photographer, Jill's images are an artistic peek into a wondrous world where few people have ever ventured. Her "Fine Art of Exploration" collection of digital photographs are popular sellers at dive and art festivals.
We hope you can add Jill Heinerth to your organization's event schedule. There is no fee or honorarium required - but Jill appreciates the opportunity to sell her photographs and DVDs following the presentation.
Please contact us soon so we may schedule Jill.
