A native Texan, Gene attended the University of Texas. After receiving a degree in Civil
Engineering, he embarked on a successful career in structural design working in the UK, the Middle East and United States.
Dr. Ellison holds advance degrees from the Aberdeen University and an MBA from Emory University.
After retiring
in 1997, Gene enjoys his first passions: writing, painting and lecturing on Scottish history and the art of whisky tasting.
His strong ties to his Scottish heritage, extensive studies and travel in Scotland provides him a unique insight to weave
a tale so thought provoking that it challenges your sense of the truth. In the end, you will be grateful it is fiction; or
is it. Gene is currently working on his sixth Jim Kirkwood adventure novel.
