Angie Smibert

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.
