Angela Shears

Angela Rickabaugh Shears has been writing and editing for more than 20 years.

She earned a B.A. from the University of Hawaii Manoa with a major in journalism/communications and a minor in political science.

Her memoir, Three Women from Someplace Else, released in 2011, is about living in paradise and the three very special women from other cultures who became her tradition-shockers, teachers, tour guides, life-enhancers and dear friends. Her story brings the beauty of the Hawaii up close and personal--as you sink your bare feet into the sands of Waikiki.

She was invited by a publisher to gather other gifted writers to write The Powder Room series--an enjoyable discussion between four fun, quirky women of various backgrounds, ages, and beliefs.

Angela, her husband Darrell, and their Old English Sheepdog Maggie, live in south central Pennsylvania...except when they are visiting or daydreaming about living back in Hawaii.
