Angie was born in Blacksburg, a once sleepy college town in the mountains of Southwest Virginia. She grew up thinking she wanted to be a veterinarian; organic chemistry had other ideas. But she always had stories in her head. Eventually, after a few degrees and few cool jobs—including a 10-year stint at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center—she wrote some of those stories down.
A frequent contributor to Odyssey Magazine, Angie has published many, many short stories for both adults and teens. Her first novel, Memento Nora, hit the shelves in April 2011. A Junior Library Guild Selection, Memento Nora has also been nominated for YALSA’s Best Fiction for Young Adults list. Her second novel, The Forgetting Curve, came out in Spring 2012.
