Gail Ingis | Artist, Writer, Educator

I love doing my blog. I have invited some of my fellow historic SMP writers for
interviews. The response to my invite was encouraging. I also invite my Connecticut
Chapter of Romance Writer’s (CTRWA) of America writers. Without my CTRWA group, I
wouldn’t even be here. They are amazing. One of our writers won the Rita Award this
year. We have quite a chapter in Connecticut.

Last week, my blog talked about Michael Graves who built entertainment architecture
for
Disney, based on strategies set forth by CEO, Michael Eisner. I said I would share the
story about my stay at The Swan Hotel . . .

About Gail Ingis

Gail Ingis writes historical romance, loves history and romance of course, has taught
history, and her weekly blog frequently covers historical content. A native of
Brooklyn, New York, Ingis’s early days began and ended with writing, drawing and
music.
Her inspiration to write came from books gifted to her by an aunt. But life had other
ideas.

After graduating from the New York School of Interior Design with a BFA in Interior
Architecture and Design and masters’ studies in Architecture and Design Criticism at
The New School (Parsons). Her career in interior design and architecture led her to
the
other arts. Ingis founded the Interior Design Institute, a school of interior design,
that she eventually sold, but during her tenure, she was twice asked by publishers to
write a textbook, her efforts were thwarted by a heavy schedule.

Ingis resides in Connecticut with her scientist-writer husband. She and her husband
travel and enjoy tennis. Currently, she sits on the Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum
Board of Trustees and serves as Curator of Art for exhibitions at the museum.

She is a member of the CTRWA—Connecticut Chapter of Romance Writer’s of America.
