- PAM is the author of top-selling business/self-help books for women, including The Eleven Commandments of Wildly Successful Women (Macmillan Spectrum 1996, hardcover; 1998 paperback) and its sequel, The Twelfth Commandment of Wildly Successful Women: Discover Your Own Best Answers to the Big Questions About Life, Work, and Love (Chandler House Press, 1999).

After graduating from Northwestern University, Pam has had multiple careers: a Pan Am flight attendant and instructor; a third-grade teacher; a commercial model; television and radio host and as a spokeswoman in New York, Cleveland and San Francisco. In 1982 Gilberd started her own successful division of a company. She pioneered and sold market umbrellas. In 1992 the mother company sold her division and she found herself unemployed. During her search for a new identity, she interviewed men and women in businesses around the U.S. for various articles and books.
She and her husband Fred raised their six children in their blended family. Now that the kids are grown, Pam and Fred live in Carmel and Lake Tahoe, California.
- I need help with...
- I am working on a book about how improvisation can help working women (certainly men, too, but that's not the focus of this particular book.) I need help finding business women who have taken improv techniques back to work with them and how that changed their lives for the better. Also, from a trainer's point of view, what are the most significant improv principles you teach that affect women inparticular?
Many thanks!
