About the Author

Linda Hall-Kelsoe grew up on a dairy farm in the Midwest, earned a B.S. in English from the University of Minnesota, and moved to California in 1983.

 

Following a 13-year stint with a San Diego design firm, she joined her husband’s product development business where she provided technical and copy writing for startups.

Along the way, she created a line of greeting cards sold in college bookstores and completed freelance projects for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Honeywell, and Northrop Grumman/TRW.

She met her husband and travel mate, Jeff Kelsoe, through a personal ad in the San Diego Reader. Beyond southern Europe, the twosome has traveled to Asia, Mexico, and the Caribbean. They currently live near Palm Springs in southern California.

Europe à la Mode is Linda’s first (and possibly only) book.
