AGE 29
HOMETOWN Merced, Calif.
OCCUPATION Advertising executive
THE SCOOP Her current job and her past experience as a camp counselor for at-risk kids ought to come in handy when she's pitching alliances to emotionally spent comrades.
PROS Should be able to fake her way out of a jam; after all, Gallagher starred in a local production of A Chorus Line last summer.
CONS She describes herself as funny, but we'll see if her shackmates agree after a week of typical Survivor living conditions.
