Eleanor Taylor Bland was born in Boston, Massachusetts. But after marrying at the age of 14, she moved to the Naval Station Great Lakes in North Chicago, Illinois, with her husband, Anthony Bland, who was serving in the US Navy. Taylor was her father's name, not her maiden name. She and her husband remained together for 31 years, before parting. Although she was diagnosed with Gardner syndrome in the 1970s and given a short time to live, she managed to overcome the disease. In later years, however, she fought several bouts with cancer. Bland received a BA from the University of Southern Illinois in 1981, and from 1981 to 1999 worked as an accountant. She had two children and several grandchildren, and resided in Waukegan, Illinois, during the later years of her life.〔O’Donnell, Maureen. (“Writer Set Mysteries in Waukegan.” ) ''Chicago Sun-Times'', June 8, 2010.〕 Bland died of Gardner's syndrome on June 2, 2010, at Vista Medical Center East in Waukegan.〔http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2010-06-08/features/ct-met-0608-bland-obit-20100608_1_mystery-writers-bland-novels〕
