Audrey Grace Florine Stone was the daughter of Norman Alfred Stone, an English medical furniture salesman, and Ruth Benson, a nurse whose family was from Norway. She was baptized at the Ravenswood Covenant Church in Chicago, Illinois, United States. She grew up in and around Queens, New York, moving around as often as an "army brat". Her parents' marriage was "off and on" and her father left early in her life. When she was five, her mother moved into a nurses' dormitory at the Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital and sent her to live with a friend in New Rochelle, New York. However, her mother did visit her on weekends. At this time, the young Audrey attended Julia Richmond School, Manhattan.
She worked in Massachusetts and at the Coleman Obstetrical and Gynecological Hospital at the Indiana University Medical Center. Long after she finished working as a nurse, she continued renewing her credentials, refusing to "hang up the whites” officially.
In 1945 she married fellow student Edmunds Grey Dimond. He became a resident physician at Indiana University Medical Center and later Dean of Cardiology at the University of Kansas. While the couple travelled to and lived in Japan and Netherlands for his work, where she took lessons in sculpture. They had two daughters, Lark Grey (b. 1953), a sculptor, and Leagrey, a bookstore owner. Of her role as a mother, she said, "I was the kind of mother I now regret […] But I don't live with regret, because what you see is what they got." After Audrey's death, her daughters disputed this self-description, saying they had developed a warm relationship with their mother. The family moved to La Jolla, San Diego, in 1960 for Dimond to join Scripps Clinic, while Geisel volunteered in cancer wards.
After the legally required six-week wait, Geisel married Seuss on August 5, 1968, at the Washoe County Courthouse in Reno, Nevada. They invited no friends. They lived in a "Mount Soledad aerie" in La Jolla, where Seuss had previously lived with Palmer. It had an "old stucco observatory and elegant, helter-skelter maze of rooms they have built around it." When she moved in with Seuss, Geisel sent her daughters to boarding school of which she said "They wouldn't have been happy with Ted, and Ted wouldn't have been happy with them." Her daughters later disputed this statement and said that Seuss had been a warm and loving father. She also said "I've never been very maternal. There were too many other things I wanted to do. My life with him was what I wanted my life to be."
The couple travelled widely around the world, including Cambodia, India, France, United Kingdom, Kenya, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Australia, New Zealand, Morocco, Israel, Lebanon, and many other countries and territories.
When Seuss started losing his sight to glaucoma in 1975, Geisel served as his "eyes and driver". Geisel took credit for Seuss's appearance, saying "I created the beard. He had a nose that was looking for a beard all his life." It was in part to make Seuss's life easier as he began to lose his sight. In 1989 Geisel was diagnosed with a benign brain tumour. It was successfully removed in January 1990. She nursed Seuss during his final illness. He died of cancer in 1991.
Geisel was "credited with reinvigorating her husband's creative output". He published 20 books during their 25-year marriage, including The Lorax, You're Only Old Once! and Oh, the Places You'll Go!. She was proud of her contributions to Seuss's work. His editors at Random House told her "His juices were getting diluted, and he needed something to start him again."
She was also credited with "encouraging her husband to address more social issues" in his books, specifically The Lorax and the anti-war The Butter Battle Book. When Seuss was stuck while trying to write a book about conservation issues, Geisel suggested a trip to Kenya to get his mind off his work. While there, Seuss saw a herd of elephants. Of the sight, he said he "grabbed a laundry list that I had beside me and wrote the whole book The Lorax in 45 minutes." On the same trip, Seuss saw people cutting down acacia trees, and "he thought, 'they can't cut down my Dr. Seuss trees' – which he renamed Truffula trees."
During an interview in 1986, Seuss noted that Geisel studied art and called her "the colour expert […] She always makes sure to tell me what's bad."
Geisel "accepted credit" for Seuss's change of colour palette for The Lorax. Seuss also said Geisel was "the only adult who could read [his stories] aloud."
Before Seuss died, Geisel had "the impression that I was going to be fairly involved in everything, […] it began to dawn on me that there was going to be a tremendous transition after his loss – I was going to do everything!" Seuss left behind "drawers, closets and files of unsorted, uncatalogued material".
To protect Seuss's name and copyrights, Dr. Seuss Enterprises was created in 1993. Geisel was President and CEO and would "hold court each morning with aides at a La Valencia Hotel's restaurant in San Diego […] arriving in a 1984 Cadillac with licence plate that said GRINCH." Geisel was the prima inter pares on the board of three directors.
Of her role, in 1994 she said, "My absolute desire, creed, intent is to carry forth from this day Ted's books, the sharing and ongoingness of those books, generation by generation, for all the reasons they were written in the first place. They're in our language." Of looking after Seuss's characters she said "You keep firm control as if they really were your children. I don't want the Cat in the Hat in a bad part of town, so to speak."
By 1996, there was concern that Geisel had been over-saturating the market with too many Seuss-related products, with Brian Henson of Jim Henson Productions saying, "it is an unusual situation where there are different people working with the same characters on different sorts of projects all over the place. That makes it a little confusing." However, on one point Geisel was firm: "I don't want to go into the food business. I don't want one of our little people poking out from a box of Wheat Chex."
Geisel was involved in the following in her role as CEO of Dr. Seuss Enterprises:
Geisel became president of the Dr. Seuss Foundation, which was established in 1958. A portion of all sales of Dr. Seuss books is donated to the Foundation which supports the arts, civic and public affairs, education, health, international relief, social services and religious welfare with a focus on California.
The fund supported (and continues to support) dozens of charitable organisations in San Diego through the donation of "millions of dollars". Of her support of San Diego, she said, "I truly love this town. And I saw all the problems in the underbelly […] all the mental problems, poverty, sociological problems. Illiteracy." In 2000 she said, "I'm kind of the safety net under San Diego." Some of the causes she supported included:
Through the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) the fund established the Theodor Seuss Geisel Award for the "most distinguished American book for beginning readers". In 2012 the Dartmouth Medical School was renamed the Geisel School of Medicine, to reflect the couple's generosity over many years.
Following Geisel's death, the Chancellor of UCSD said the university "would not be the same top-ranked research institution it is today without her enthusiastic generosity and vast university involvement." Geisel was involved in many aspects of the university's activities. Of her relationship with UCSD she said "I feel so much part of this university. I just do."
Following her death, Scripps renamed the pavilion on its Torey Pines site the Geisel Pavilion. Geisel's La Jolla home was donated to UCSD. It was put up for sale in 2022 with the net proceeds put into a Geisel Fund.
