About Angela

Angela Dalton was once a producer of online kids’ games and other cool, nerdy things. She grew up in the Midwest reading lots of book, watching Star Trek on repeat, and guzzling red Kool-Aid. Now an adult, two of these three things have inspired her to write her own stories, and the third is a once-a-year treat (can you guess which one?).

 

Author of books for young minds, she has three forthcoming picture books: Ruby’s Reunion Day Dinner (2021), Show the World! (2022), and To Boldly Go: How Nichelle Nichols and Star Trek Helped Civil Rights (2023).

​

A member of the Bay Area #Ownvoices Book Creators, SCBWI and the 12×12 Picture Book Challenge, she now lives in Oakland, California with her husband, son, and way too many “to be read” books on her bedside table.
