Let $G$ be a word-hyperbolic group with a quasiconvex hierarchy. We show that $G$ has a finite index subgroup $G'$ that embeds as a quasiconvex subgroup of a right-angled Artin group. It follows that every quasiconvex subgroup of $G$ is a virtual retract, and is hence separable. The results are applied to certain 3-manifold and one-relator groups.
Keywords: CAT(0) cube complex, right-angled artin group, 3-manifold, subgroup separable, one-relator group..
