Gail Fraser

Gail Fraser was born and raised in Rye, New York, and attended the Rye High School before continuing on to major in English and receive an AA from Colby Sawyer College. Gail then studied at the University of London before returning to Skidmore College where she earned her BA in English Education. 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 traveling extensively throughout the world.

Gail and her husband, Art Poulin, live in rural upstate New York with their dogs, Yoda (a kind and gentle German Shepherd from New Skete Monastery), Emma (who is, as always, overly exuberant Emma) and several other four legged home and barn friends. In addition to writing, Gail is an avid stoneware potter, gardener and cook and enjoys tending to their orchard and bee hives most every morning.
