Biography

Christy-Award winner Angela Hunt writes for readers who expect the unexpected in novels. With nearly six million copies of her books sold worldwide, she is the best-selling author of more than 165 works ranging from picture books (The Tale of Three Trees) to non-fiction books, to novels.

Now that her two children are grown, Angie and her husband live in Florida with Very Big Dogs (a direct result of watching Turner and Hooch and Sandlot too many times). This affinity for mastiffs has not been without its rewards-one of their dogs was featured on Live with Regis and Kelly as the second-largest canine in America. Their dog received this dubious honor after an all-expenses-paid trip to Manhattan for the dog and the Hunts, complete with VIP air travel and a stretch limo in which they toured New York City. Afterward, the dog gave out pawtographs at the airport.

In 2007, her novel The Note was featured as a Christmas movie on the Hallmark channel. Romantic Times Book Club presented her with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006. American Christian Fiction Writers presented her with the same award in 2019.

Several of her novels have been optioned for film: The Immortal, The Truth Teller; Esther: Royal Beauty; and Uncharted.

She has also been hired to create novels from several screenplays: Paul, Apostle of Christ; Risen; and The Nativity Story.

She is represented by Danielle Egan-Miller of the Browne-Miller Literary Agency in Chicago.
