Marianne McShane
Marianne was born and raised in Bangor but has returned to live in her home town after years living and working in the United States as a children’s librarian and storyteller. She loves to tell Celtic Wonder Tales and stories of the sea and her voice has an enchanting quality which draws listeners in to hang on her every word. Marianne’s debut picture book, Rónán and the Mermaid, inspired by a legend from Bangor, will be published in June, 2020 by Candlewick Press USA and Walker Books UK.
