Gayle Rosengren

Gayle grew up in Chicago and earned a BA in creative writing and philosophy at Knox College. After graduation she married her college sweetheart and worked as a copy writer in an advertising department. She never outgrew her passion for children's books, however, and when the opportunity presented itself, she joined the staff of the children's and young adult services departments of her local library in Illinois. She worked there for several years enthusiastically sharing her love of books with young people while raising three young people of her own.

Eventually, Gayle moved to Madison, Wisconsin, where she worked in the reference library of a children's publishing house and later as a copy editor. During this time she published short stories in several noted children's magazines and she wrote her first novel. Today Gayle lives just outside of Madison with her husband Don and their slightly neurotic rescue dog, Fiona. She is thrilled to be able to write full time at last.

Gayle's dream has always been to write stories that would touch children's hearts the way her favorite writers touched hers. What the Moon Said is her first novel and was inspired by events in her mother's childhood during the Depression.
