Susan GoreSusan Gore

Susan Gore is an educator and entrepreneur. By the age of 30, she had worked in television, earned her Ph.D. in psychology, taught in the United States and Europe and become executive director of a national non-profit association. She transferred the same energy into corporate marketing for two Fortune 500 firms in addition to opening the Washington, DC office of a socially responsible money fund.  In 1991, Susan created The Mentor Group, a virtual network of experts specializing in strategic leadership, diversity and inclusion, and mentoring program development. In 2011, Susan reached a fork in her career path and joined the Ebby Halliday Company.

In May, Skinner House Books is releasing Coming Out in Faith: Voices of LGBTQ Unitarian Universalists, which Susan edited with her good friend and colleague, Rev. Keith Kron.

Susan is a world traveler who likes nothing better than “the next trip” and coming back to the home at Cedar Creek Lake she shares with her partner of 20 years, Dr. Ann Wigodsky.
