Anne Ewing Rassios, Ph.D, born and raised in Southern California, has been living and working in rural Greece for the past thirty years ago, as a writer and a geo-scientist.

A graduate of Rice University with a degree in Geology, and a PhD from University of California at Davis, Anne is an internationally renown geo-scientist, who specialties range from tectonic ore analysis to field mapping. She has authored over forty research papers based on extensive field work conducted throughout the geologic corners of Greece, Cyprus, the Balkans, and Britain.      

A prolific creative writer, Anne’s favorite subject is Greece and its people.  Besides writing the weekly humor column Of Wolves and Howling for the Hellas Star, she has penned over ten creative fiction and non-fiction articles for Atlantis Magazine. Anne’s ability to weave tales of modern myths from the hidden villages of Mount Olympus has led to the writing of her first novel Godquake: Life on the Edge, a dramatic and humorous account of life in a small, rural Greek Village.

Anne’s immediate family includes: Adamos, her husband of twenty-six years, who is one of the last remaining Greek "mastoras," a community master mechanic; and their son Mikhalis, who is currently studying Agricultural Science in California. 

Anne is currently writing her second novel, The Orliakada (The Place of the Howling) based on life in the Pindos Mountains of Greece.
