Tracey Enerson Wood

Tracey Enerson Wood has always had a writing bug. While working as a Registered Nurse, starting her own Interior Design company, raising two children, and bouncing around the world as a military wife, she indulged in her passion as a playwright, screenwriter and novelist. She has authored magazine columns and other non-fiction, written and directed plays of all lengths, including Grits, Fleas and Carrots, Rocks and Other Hard Places, Alone, and Fog.  Currently, Tracey focuses on finding amazing women in history whose stories need to be brought to life. She is eternally grateful to Sourcebooks Landmark for bringing this dream to reality.

Tracey’s debut novel, The Engineer’s Wife, is an international and USA Today bestseller.  Her second novel, The War Nurse was released in 2021 in hardback and 2022 in trade paperback to great acclaim.  Her next novel, The President’s Wife, focusing on Edith Bolling Wilson, who some claim was the first female U.S. president, is scheduled for release on August 15, 2023.  Her screenplays include Strike Three and Roebling’s Bridge.

Other passions include food and cooking, and honoring military heroes. Her co-authored anthology/cookbook Homefront Cooking, American Veterans share Recipes, Wit, and Wisdom, was released by Skyhorse Publishing in May, 2018, and all authors’ profits will be donated to organizations that support veterans.  A New Jersey native, she now lives with her family in Florida.
