Gail Cohen

Gail Cohen's feature articles appeared in consumer and trade publications for 30+ years, including the Chicago Tribune, Northshore magazine and R.R. Bowker’s "Library Journal." Cohen authored two weekly columns and personality profiles for the Daily Herald (IL) newspaper until the end of 2003. She retired from teaching in 2007 after 13 years as a graduate and undergraduate instructor of advertising theory, copywriting and design, public relations, magazine writing and design, fundamentals of journalism and feature writing.

She published several non-fiction books for Roman, Inc., including one children's book, Once Upon an Ark. Since 2008 she has produced work for content farms and she's written so many (6000+), she regularly runs into them when using search engines. She self-published one book: George's Wictionary!, an homage to George W. Bush's spelling skills.

Cohen co-authored a number of Publications International gift books, Save the Last Stall for Me in December 2009 and Heavy Petting – a collection of quirky pet stories published by Musa -- in December 2011. Mélange Press published her first romantic novel, The Christmas Quilt, in December 2011. Cohen uses her undergraduate and graduate degrees in anthropology to add depth to her eclectic list of writing projects. She has an odd sense of humor and a slew of children, grandchildren, ex-husbands and ex-literary agents. Her most recent international byline -- a book review in the Jerusalem Post -- went live on July 8, 2021.
