Jeannette Angell's wide range of interests is clearly evident in her body of works: Légende, Wings, and Flight are all historical novels; The Illusionist is a contemporary mainstream novel; In Dark Woods, a literary novel, is currently being shopped by her agent. Her poetry explores connections and the breaking of them; her plays look at dysfunctional families (Tokens of Affection and The Pact) and chance encounters (Flygirls).
So what is the connection? "What I'm interested in exploring," says Angell, "is the complex nature of people. We're none of us "good" or "bad," but we all have something of each inside us. We struggle with the gray areas of living, make mistakes, aren't always nice. People are complicated and do not always do what we expect them to."Her work has appeared in 17 countries ad been translated into 15 languages. She is a member of the National Writer's Union, the Author's Guild, and the Dramatists' Guild. Jeannette is a founding member of the prestigious Commercial Street Writers Workshop.
