Jenna DeAngeles is an Emmy™ Award–winning producer, writer, and creator whose work spans television, film, literature, art, and the culinary world. She received the 2024 Emmy™ Award for 10 Days in Watts (PBS), which also won First Prize from the LA Press Club. She executive-produced Only in Theaters, Raphael Sbarge’s documentary that garnered multiple festival awards. TV producer credits include Jenna’s Studio, an EVOX TV series based on Jenna’s YouTube channel with over 3 million views; LA Foodways (KCET); A Concrete River (KCET), and more.

Rewind to 2003: Jenna’s first two gift books, You Deserve a Happy Birthday and You Deserve a Merry Christmas were published by Andrews McMeel Publishing, building on Jenna’s whimsical greeting card line. In 2005, Leisure Arts published Jenna’s Studio, a book of décor projects. Later that year, Jenna’s scrapbooking line was the top-selling collection by Memories in the Making (Time Warner). She also illustrated a series of children’s books; her line of OooLaLa Girls designs were turned into products including purses, shoes, spa stuff, wall art, etc…; from there, Jenna’s art was licensed for products sold in Bloomingdales, Target and retailers around the world.

In 2011, an online streaming platform, EVOX Television, produced and aired Jenna’s fanciful décor projects after Jenna logged over 3 million YouTube views of her lifestyle designs.

In 2015, a newbie to Harlem, Jenna turned her creative skills toward the food industry and opened Hamilton’s Bakery - home-cooked, organic, meals and lots of coffee. It was a surprise success and remained open until 2019, when investors made Jenna an offer she couldn’t refuse. Hamilton’s in the rear view mirror, her mind packed with memories, characters, unbelievable experiences and a trove of chaos-related phobias, Jenna returned to writing - her dangerously funny and touching chef’s memoir titled NOT TODAY SATAN, NOT TODAY resulted.

In addition, in 2024, Jenna finished her novel, HIS F*CKING LIES - about sex, betrayal, and the eternally f*cked-up condition known as love.

Jenna lives in New York City with her husband, actor/director Raphael Sbarge.
