Angelina Fanous

Angelina Fanous is a reporter, writer, and producer at VICE. She spent three years on the editors’ desk for vice.com, and in the last year has been reporting, hosting, and producing a documentary on the FDA’s drug approval process for diseases that have no viable treatment or cure—like ALS and pancreatic cancer. The film will air in January 2016 on HBO as a VICE ‘Special Report.’ She has written about her ALS diagnosis for both the The New York Times and VICE. When she wrote about the Ice Bucket Challenge right after her diagnosis, the article was shared on Facebook over 125K times. She currently lives in California.
