Active writer, and published author, Mary Gray graduated from Medill School of Journalism, Northwestern University in 1955. A long career in public relations, then as a corporate travel agent, led Mary to ghostwriting and worldwide travel. She always traveled to the places she wrote about so she could experience them for herself and bring them to life for her readers.
Poetic Justice, her recent novel, was a semi-finalist as a novel-in-progress in the 2017 William Faulkner-William Wisdom Creative Writing Competition before it was contracted to Adelaide Books. Also available on Amazon. Mary is active in local writers and book groups, works with the Goodman Theatre GeNarrations – creating the spoken word, and is a committee member of the Village of Chicago.
