Gladys Amanda Reichardová bola antropologička, ktorá sa špecializovala na jazyk a kultúru Navajoov. Jej práca skúmala hlboké spojenie medzi jazykom a myslením, pričom sa zamerala na to, ako štruktúra jazyka formuje vnímanie sveta. Reichardová sa snažila pochopiť nielen slová, ale aj logiku a filozofiu, ktoré sú do jazyka vpletené. Jej pohľady do kultúry Navajoov odhaľujú zložité vzorce myslenia a sociálne štruktúry, ktoré sú neodmysliteľne spojené s jazykovým vyjadrením.
