Angela Dominguez

Angela Dominguez was born in Mexico City and grew up in North Texas. She now resides on the east coast with her husband, Kyle, and their petite dog, Petunia. She is also the author and illustrator of several books for children, including the beloved Stella Díaz series. She is a NYT Bestseller, Sid Fleischman winner, and a two-time Pura Belpré Illustration Honoree. Her books have garnered acclaim from the New York Public Library, Chicago Public Library, Best Picks from Amazon, and Junior Library Guild. She aims to represent under-represented Latinx cultures in American children's books through her fictional novels and illustrations. As a child, she loved reading books and making a mess creating pictures, and she is delighted to still be doing both professionally.
