Gerry Kruger

Gerry Kruger, a native Virginian, resides in Charlottesville where she taught English for twenty-seven years. Like her father, she finds fulfillment in helping others succeed. It was her father’s dedication to making life better for others that inspired her to write TWO OF US: A Father-Daughter Memoir.

Earlier, as an essayist on National Public Radio, she detailed the adventures of a lame Canada goose that was unable to fly and walked to her pond. She published these essays in ON KRUGER POND: Charlie’s Story.

Gerry believes people can overcome setbacks and obstacles just as Charlie the goose did with a little help and attention from a caring individual. Gerry's latest book, ON KRUGER POND: Charlie's Legacy, chronicles the stories of Charlie's descendants. She hopes record them for the blind.
