She completed her MBA at the University of Connecticut, with graduate work done at Harvard University. Prior to changing her life and becoming a novelist, Gail had a successful career in 'corporate America' holding senior executive and upper management positions in several Fortune 500 and start-up corporations, and working extensively throughout the world.

Ten years ago, Gail and Art built their own Lumby - a 40 acre gentleman's farm in rural upstate New York, which has been featured in several national magazines and newspapers, as well as on PBS. They will soon be moving to Florida as both are avid open-water and pool long-distance swimmers. When not writing, Gail tends her vegetable garden, orchard and apiary, and plays the flute.view less
