Born in Sioux City, Iowa, G. R. moved with her family to Massachusetts in 1972, when she was thirteen years old. She graduated from Newman Prep High School in Boston in 1976 and
attended Boston Business School. Although she loved her work as an accountant, her urge to write remained strong. When her youngest son was born in 2004, she returned to her love of writing by creating short stories to read to him. She recently retired from her position at Public Consulting Group, Inc., in order to pursue writing full time. Her familiarity with and fondness for Boston and its surrounding areas—the rich and beautiful atmosphere and history—provided the inspiration for Chasing Vito’s Ghosts, which is her first novel. She lives with her husband, Normand, son Michael, their cat Brock, Goldendoodle Boomer, and seven African water frogs in East Bridgewater, Massachusetts.view less
