Gifts and Etiquette

About Leah

National and regional media look to Leah Ingram for fresh presentations on everything gifts and etiquette--from holiday shopping to weddings and celebrations to teaching children manners. Leah’s lively advice provides new ways to think about old traditions.

The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Health Magazine and more have all quoted Leah on her unique approach to gifts and etiquette.

Media-trained while an editor at Woman’s Day Special Interest Publications, Leah quickly became the go-to gal for demonstrating gift ideas, gift-giving advice and general etiquette on such programs as CNN’s Airport Network, "Philly After Midnight," News 12 New Jersey, "Good Day New York" and Woman’s Day Television. She's a frequent guest on "Good Day Philadelphia"; recent segments have focused on how to send your kids back to school with good manners and what gift to get for a baby shower.

Leah is the author of 14 books, including The Everything Etiquette Book: A Modern Day Guide to Good Manners and Gifts Anytime: How to Find the Perfect Present for Any Occasion. She's also written a branded book on gift giving for Hallmark Stores as well as two non-gift books that focus on frugal living.

Her editorial print features on lifetsyle topics have appeared in Parade, New York Magazine, USA Weekend, Bridal Guide, In Style Weddings, among other national magazines.

Leah is a graduate of New York University, with a degree in journalism, and the Protocol School of Washington, from which she received her certification as an etiquette and protocol consultant. She has also acted as a spokesperson for many national brands, including Starbucks, Bank of America, and Colgate-Palmolive.

Leah lives a train ride away from most major Northeastern cities, in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
