Victoria Gray grew up in St. Louis as the first daughter of six. Her father, Victor, a very inventive story teller, sparked creative endeavors in most of his children. Victoria began her reading and writing career at the tender age of four via the guidance of her father. Victoria is a widow and a mother of four.
First thing every morning you'll find her journaling in her latest journal alongside a cup of tea. Often times she's writing tidbits to add to one of the many books she's working on at any given moment.
Outside of writing, reading and researching for her Estate Sales-Appraisal business, her first loves are her four children.
She's worn many hats along her life's journey. In 2003 she became a public speaker featuring historic clothing she made, which was noted by the Post Dispatch Fashion Editor. The Editor encouraged Victoria to create a fashion show, which was then featured in the paper. Her fashions are made using repurposed textiles such as: vintage hankies, vintage laces, vintage tablecloths etc. To date Victoria has hosted over 160 fashion shows at various venues in St. Louis, Illinois and surrounding areas utilizing over 300 items designed and created by her. In conjunction with her shows, she created several patterns of her designs and a book entitled Victoria Gray Unfolded.
Victoria's first book Victoria Zane came to her in the form of a dream. This dream spawned her published writing career and she's never stopped! Because of this dream's factual basis, Victoria studied at the School of Metaphysics, plus screenwriting, playwriting and cinematography. All of which opened her to new age thinking and various ways to help others with more compassion and courtesy.
