Biography

Leslie Gilbert Elman is a New York-based writer, editor and frustrated Jeopardy! contestant, who has soaked up a lifetime’s worth of trivial information just in case someone asked her to write The Ladies' Room Reader Quiz Book. She has worked for the National Hockey League and Better Homes & Gardens books, written articles for Playboy and books for children, and covered travel destinations from Poland to the Poconos. The Ladies’ Room has always played a significant role in her life. Leslie also writes frequently about Scandinavia and the Nordic countries. Click on the links at left to see more.
