'''Gerald P. Jones''' was born in a suburb of Los Angeles, California, in the mid-1940s, and lived in that area until his retirement in 2007. After graduation (cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa) from university in the mid-1960s with a major in Music and a minor in Latin, he spent a "gap decade" in various positions and situations (including unemployment) until the State of California changed its rules on graduate fellowships and allowed renewals of annual stipends up to four years. He took advantage of this opportunity, was granted a fellowship, and completed his Master of Science in Education degree in 1978 with a thesis titled "Early Assessment of Atypical Psychosexual Development".

Also in the mid-1970s, Gerald Jones held a private-school teaching position (Latin and Music, 1976-1980) and began a 16-year part-time career (1976-1992) as a professional singer in the Los Angeles Master Chorale and the Roger Wagner Chorale.

In 1980, Gerald Jones began the last phase of his graduate work and earned the Ph.D. in Educational Psychology in 1985 with a specialization in Human Development and a secondary specialization in Counseling. His dissertation bears the title "The Development of Intimate Friendship in Childhood and Adolescence". While earning that degree, and in the year after its completion, he was a teaching assistant and then instructor of Women's Studies (now usually referred to as 'gender studies') at two universities, and from 1986-1990 was a fellow in a university-based women's-studies research institute.

The process of socialization, particularly through mentoring and apprenticeship (literal and figurative), has been central to his writing and research. He coined the term "[[Intergenerational relationship|Intergenerational Intimacy]]" in two conference presentations in 1986 and 1987, and his term was used in the title of a book (originally a full two issues of the Journal of Homosexuality) in which his article ''"The study of intergenerational intimacy in North America: Beyond politics and pedophilia"'' was published. The term refers primarily to the social, non-sexual, committed interaction and friendship between pre-adults and adults.

The focus of Gerald Jones's writing and research has been on male interaction (boys and men) such as that institutionalized in the Scouting movement, the YMCA, Big Brothers, and all-male primary and secondary schools. At the same time, his work in gender studies at the university level as a feminist teacher and scholar has led him continually to encourage women scholars and writers to parallel that work with studies and writings about socialization processes involving girls and women, and all scholars to continue to study all socialization processes, same-sex as well as cross-sex.

Gerald Jones's professional career crystallized in 1986 when he took a position as statistics software specialist in the computing center at his alma mater. He was listed in "Who's Who in America" in 2002 and following years as a software educator, and is a certified SAS software programmer.

In 2007, upon his retirement from his position after 21 years, he established a website which he dubbed as his "Exit Interview"<ref>[https://exitinterview.biz/ Exit Interview - the site of Gerald Jones, Ph.D.]</ref>, where he makes available full-text copies of rare journals from the mid-to-late 20th century (along with an index he constructed for the archive as well as an historical overview); a collection of quotations gathered over several decades; his own thoughts in journal format; and other documents and features that he trusts will be useful to the generations to follow.
