Chandonnet, Ann

As a child, Ann Chandonnet went about muttering phrases like "beautiful pea green boat" and "Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail, and Peter." This affected her mind permanently, and she became a writer. She was a feature writer for The Anchorage Times for ten years, and has also written for the Anchorage Daily News, Alaska magazine, the Christian Science Monitor, and Early American Life. Her most recent newspaper work was for the Juneau Empire, where she was a feature writer and for three years covered the police and court beat.

Ann also writes poetry and cookbooks, including The Alaska Heritage...
