Anna Casamento Arrigo

Anna Cassamento Arrigo was born in Sorrentini, Sicily and came to America with her family and settled in New Jersey. After suffering a stroke, she turned to writing as a means of expressing her innermost thoughts through visionary prose. Inspired by music, poetry, and the classics of literature, Cassamento Arrigo truly encompasses the breadth and scope of the written word. Having taught inner-city students prior to her stroke, Cassamento Arrigo understands full well what it means to need inspiration. Between the success found at her hands, and the successful impartation of love, creativity, and understanding, on to her five children and her seven grandchildren, Cassament Arrigo has accomplished a great deal. She still lives in New Jersey with her husband, Vinny. This is her first memoir.
