Angela Antle is a writer, artist, and documentary maker based in St. John’s, Newfoundland. Her debut novel, The Saltbox Olive, follows the 166th British Army (Newfoundland) Artillery Regiment through Italy. The novel explores the role of individual responsibility in wartime, how photography influences our understanding of truth, and how sins committed in times of duress—but also declarations of love—can ripple outward for generations. Antle’s writing has appeared in The Smallwood Letters (MUP 2024), Riddle Fence, Newfoundland Quarterly, and CBC.ca. She wrote and directed Gander’s Ripple Effect: How a Small Town’s Kindness Opened on Broadway, and wrote the feature-length Irish-Norwegian-Canadian documentary Atlantic: What Lies Beneath. Narrated by Brendan Gleeson, it was the winner of best documentary awards at the Dublin, Wexford, Nickel, and Chagrin Film Festivals. As a journalist, Angela has rowed a dory through the Narrows, covered the subculture of Florida’s Spring Break, taken bumpy komatik rides on the coast of Labrador, hitchhiked from France to Newfoundland on a fishing boat, interviewed a Prime Minister on Broadway, and recorded Ron Hynes singing “Sonny’s Dream” in Ireland. She is an interdisciplinary PhD candidate at Memorial University and a member of Norway’s Empowered Futures Energy School.
