Kick A** Women Making A Difference

About Oana:  Born in Bucharest, Romania, Oana lived twenty years under the grotesque dictatorial regime of Ceausescu. After the fall of the communism in 1989 she studied languages at the University in Bucharest, then received her Master’s at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland.   She has worn many hats, working as a translator, as a teacher, and eventually caring for animals both domestic and wild. She volunteered and worked for wildlife rescue and rehabilitation centers both in the US and Canada.  Her first book, The Healings, was published in 2010 by All Things That Matter Press. Oana lives in the US, where she continues to dedicate most of her time to promoting human and animal rights. She has authored numerous articles and short stories. Her interviews titled “Mahogany Keys: The Complex Image of the African American Woman,” can be read on Author’s Info. (www.authorsinfo.com) and will be soon available in book format.
