Bio:
Angela Seats is from Hannibal MO, which is called “America’s Hometown” and is also
famous for being Mark Twain’s boyhood home. It’s a small town with a population of 18,000 where she raised her 4 children. She’s always loved photography, but her
interest became more serious when she had children. She joined PPA in 2007 for the insurance, the magazine and the marketing. Even before she knew what she was doing, she was trying to set herself apart as a professional. In 2010 she found herself divorced after 16 years, with 4 kids ages 6-15, and about to be out of a 20 plus year job. The struggle was real as a single parent, both financially and emotionally. Then, in
2017, she and her kids relocated to the Nashville area.

She has since become active in PPA, TNPPA, and PPMT. Angela is currently serving a three year term, representing Tennessee as an elected councilor for the PPA. She was president for 2 years(2020-2021) with PPMT during Covid, and is now on the board for TNPPA. She’s earned her CPP(2017) and Photographic Craftsman Degree (2022) and has just begun her journey to acquire her Master of Photography Degree. Angela credits her move, and becoming active in these groups, for bringing her out of her
shell…basically coming into her own and becoming “successful” after 50! She’s living proof that it’s never too late to keep chasing your dreams
