ViewBorn in 1978 to parents finding their way through the Los Angeles music business, Adanna’s life has constantly been submerged in art. Moving to upstate New York at a young age, she attended a Waldorf/Steiner school on a small, working organic dairy farm. An unconventional education provided a start in her journey of writing and painting. Waldorf education also provided a lifelong acceptance of her creative mind and the depths to which her imagination could take her. With dreams of being a travel journalist and novelist as a child, and a vision of filling others’ lives with stories and beauty.
Adanna wove her way through many different careers to finally land where she always knew she should be. After a fifteen-year nursing career to a hairstylist to now where she works as a literary publicist and web designer, Adanna makes sure her entire world revolves around literature. Threadbare is her first book of poetry published by Curious Corvid in January 2022. She lives with her husband, stepsons, and daughter in the mountains of Idaho.
