Heather Pringle is a Canadian freelance science writer who mostly writes about archaeology.[1][2] Before becoming a writer, Pringle worked as a museum researcher and book editor.[1] Her 2006 book The Master Plan detailed Heinrich Himmler's establishment of the Ahnenerbe in a pseudo-scientific attempt to manufacture evidence and "prove" Aryan superiority.[3][4] It won the Hubert Evans Non-Fiction Prize.[2][5] Her previous work includes The Mummy Congress, as well as articles for National Geographic and Archaeology magazine. Pringle is emeritus editor at Hakai Magazine and has been awarded a Canadian National Magazine Award[6] and an AAAS Kavli Science Journalism Award from the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Kavli Foundation.[7][8]
