Angela Hauke is the author of Finger Paint Your Life, and uses her honours degree in psychology to study behaviourism and child/adolescent development. She is also a mother to three children and a grandmother to six grandchildren, which has given her a lot of first-hand experience in the growing stages of life! Angela has always been drawn to writing, but her focus shifted to children's stories when she became a grandmother and was able to spend big chunks of time with them. Listening, observing, and noting how much they take in and how the world impacts their sense of themselves led her to write Think Your Pink.

Angela lives in Oshawa, Ontario, with her husband Rick, who she has been with since they were both sixteen years old. Their family comprises three grown children and their spouses, six grandchildren, two grand-dogs, and their twelve-year-old golden retriever.
