AnnaMaria resides in Los Angeles with her loving son.
AnnaMaria was born in Toronto to a Ukrainian mother who fled Ukraine with her parents and siblings around World War II. Her parents wanted to come to America but chose to flee to Canada instead, where they spent two years working in the farm fields to obtain citizenship. This was to avoid their children being conscripted into the military, a fear born from their experiences during World War II. AnnaMaria's uncle eventually immigrated to the USA, joined the US military, and served for many years.
AnnaMaria's father is from Guyana, where he was raised in a very large family. He went to school taught by strict Catholic nuns. In his early 20s he adventured off for almost a year in the thick interior jungles of Guyana. Later, he initially tried to come to America but, failed and decided to try Canada. He immigrated to Canada and then eventually his family moved as well, including his longtime family nanny who was like a mother to him. Growing up AnnaMaria thought he made his jungle stories up because none of her friends has stories of anyone hanging in hammocks in high up trees, hearing panthers sounds in the dark, and getting stuck in quick sand (which are all true) and that maybe he watched too many Indiana Jones movies!
AnnaMaria's parents met at a wedding and are still married. Her mother's dream was to go to Hollywood and get into showbiz, and her father wanted to be a pilot but neither of them thought it was possible to follow their dream. Instead, they made sure AnnaMaria and her siblings were regularly exposed to the arts.
AnnaMaria finds this biography important because it highlights the privilege of her having the choice to come to America and at least try to do her own dreams.
AnnaMaria has a world title: "Queen of Banana's" (look it up!)
