Gina Bria is an anthropologist and founder of the Hydration Foundation, recognized as a leading resource for hydration science and education. Named a Real World Scholar, she produced the first International Hydration Solution Summit and the TEDx talk: How to Grow Water: It’s not Only Blue: It’s Green. Bria is co-author with Dr. Dana Cohen, MD, of QUENCH: Your Five-Day Plan to Optimal Hydration, with 50 recipes, now in seven languages and recommended by The New York Times, Oprah’s O Magazine, NPR, and many other media sources. Her Rehydrate Our Thirsty Mother Earth Project was selected for the Buckminster Fuller Design Science Ten-Year Award to spread better water solutions.

With her colleague and filmmaker, Maxi Cohen, she’s at work on a traveling Water Museum called A Movement in Water, an immersive art and science exhibit, to raise reverence and understanding of our most precious material and what all life is made from—water. She is the creator of the first-ever in-flight facial for air travel, DewGo.
