About Gail
Gail Gilbride was born in Pretoria. She is a middle child and despite playing with dinky cars in the dust, she developed a love for dolls, ballet, and all things pink. These days she lives on the edge of the Hemel en Aarde Valley in South Africa with her human and furry family, where she swims in the sea, writes, gardens, and dabbles in painting.
Gail holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Rhodes University and a post-graduate teaching diploma from UCT. In a previous life, she taught English, Sound Perception, and Communication Skills. She also used to dance and mastering the Tango is still on her wish list.
Her novel Under the African Sun was published by CactusRain in 2016, and it was selected as a top ten finalist in the Author Academy Awards competition (USA).
Cat Therapy is her unplanned memoir and is distributed by Karavan Press.
Gail’s interests include being part of a writers’ group, reading and reviewing novels particularly by fellow South African writers, following the South African political scene, mentoring teenagers, supporting Cape Town City Ballet, and enjoying music and theatre,
