About the Author 
Anna's writing is inspired by her lifelong love of the Chesapeake Bay. She lives with her husband and young sons on Virginia’s Eastern Shore, around the corner from her childhood home. Anna grew up on Onancock Creek, where she had her first boat at age 12  and learned how to crab and fish from her father and grandfather.
