About Angela Allen
 I am a nationally recognized writer who worked for 25 years as a daily newspaper columnist, reviewer and staffer. Since 2006, I have pursued a freelance writing, teaching and photography career, contributing to regional, national and international publications and Web sites. Nosing around the Northwest, I cover food/wine, restaurants, style, art, architecture, homes, jazz, classical music, farmers and opera. And people, lots of people. Please contact me about rates.
I teach writing in the Oregon schools as a member of Portland’s Wordstock (formerly Community of Writers) and in 2009, served as the Eastern Oregon Writer-in-Residence, teaching creative writing for several months throughout Harney and Malheur counties. Our poetry anthology, "Saturday Afternoons" (Clothesline Press, 2009) is selling around Portland at Sellwood’s Looking Glass Bookstore (7983 S.E. 13th Ave.) and Broadway Books (1714 N.E Broadway), and in Burns, Ore., at The Book Parlor, (433 N. Broadway) as well as through this site.
My photo show, "Oregon's Other Side, " a visual journey of Eastern Oregon, is going to Burns, Ore., for a women's art show in the last weekend of March. It hung in Portland's CaroleZoom Studio in September 2009, and in January 2010, at Lilly's, Kathy Cary's award-winning restaurant in Louisville, Ky., my hometown. My work, including framed photos, prints and cards, is for sale. Let me know what you want.
My love for the arts, eye for color, and tolerance for life’s quirkiness keep up my sprits. I live in Portland, Ore., with my jade-eyed cat, Ella.
