Angela Byrne grew up in the heart of rural Ireland, one of a family of five. Her role as the middle child was to learn from her elders, and teach the younger children how to behave. On leaving secondary school after the Intermediate Certificate, Angela went straight to work.

By the age of eighteen, she was managing eight employees. At twenty-two she married John. The couple rented out their small farm in rural Kilkenny, and John worked in a local brewery while Angela raised their four children.

On selling the farm, Angela and John moved to Kilkenny City, where they opened a Bed and Breakfast, run as “Celtic House Bed and Breakfast”. Their hospitality business is one of the city’s most popular, and the Lonely Planet guide has designated Angela, “Ireland’s goodwill ambassador to the world.”

Angela is an accomplished painter, whose work adorns the walls of her own home and business, and appears in private collections around the world. She is also keenly interested in acting, and has attended the Margie Haber cold acting course in Hollywood and worked with RTE, Ireland’s national television station, on Crimecall.
