Ora Smith’s an author, artist, genealogist, seamstress, lover of a good book, traveler, antiquer, upcycler, and history buff. Although she’s lived in Arizona since 1986, she spent her early life in Lake Tahoe, California, where her passion to write blossomed on a tranquil riverbank with a beautiful backdrop of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. As a genealogist, she spent thirty-plus years researching her family histories.

She loves nothing better than to be whisked off to past eras to meet those whose lives are worth sharing. As an author and artist, Ora also blends her understanding and unique skills to create faith inspired stories and children’s books. She illustrated her children's picture book, A Christmas Story of Light, helping children understand what the Light of Christ can mean to them. Watch for her release of An Easter Story of Light in 2024. 2023 will bring in her first Young Adult novel series Jamestown's Boy Interpreter, books based on true events of Thomas Savage, a thirteen-year-old boy who was traded to the Natives and lived with them for over two years. Teens will love the adventure and adults will love the fascinating true tales. Although she writes on many subjects, she’s sure you’ll find in her writings a book that’s meant just for you.
