A thirty-four year Alaska resident, Donna Gentry Massay was raised in New Hampshire. While a youngster, she trained the family pets - a poodle, a beagle, and a cocker spaniel - as sled dogs and began racing at age 12. Pursuing her dreams, Donna moved to Alaska and raced for many years, first in sprint races, and later the Iditarod.

Donna competed in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in 1980 and 1981, finishing 10 and 18th. When Libby Riddles became the first woman to win the race in 1985, Donna was the Race Marshall.

Glenn Massay is Director Emeritus of Matanuska-Susitna College, the local campus of the University of Alaska Anchorage. Raised in western Pennsylvania, Glenn has his Ph.D. in history, and taught in West Virginia before entering administration and moving to Alaska in 1974.
