From Winnetka, Illinois, Ellen Ross wrote “Social Studies,” a weekly humor column for the Sun Times’ Pioneer Press for ten years.
During an unscheduled detour to Aspen, she skied and hosted “The Ellen Ross Show”- a weekly one-hour talk show for Grassroots Television.
She is the proud mother of a daughter, Natasha, and a son, Nick. She also has three grandchildren- Sam, Carolyn and Hendrix. (They aren’t that gifted but she likes them anyway.)
She loves dogs, roses, making crossword puzzles, Luis Aparicio and John lé Carré. She is a member of the National Trivia Bowl Hall of Fame. She is recently married – yet again. This time- fingers crossed- for keeps.
