Gail Lindenberg was born in Yuma, Arizona to Jim and Irene Hendrickson, the main characters in her debut novel, "He Wrote Her Every Day." For thirty-six years, she taught English, Journalism, Humanities, Speech & Debate and Drama. Her first teaching experience was at Estrella Junior High in Phoenix. When she and her family moved to California, she accepted a position at Nogales High in La Puente, where she taught for twenty-nine years.
Her first full-length book, an Indie publication, tells the story behind the letters her father wrote to her mother as a soldier in WWII.
Ms. Lindenberg, now retired from teaching, resides in Upland, CA with her husband Gene and their cat, Smudge-pot.
