Born in West Helena, Arkansas in 1972 and currently residing in Prior Lake, Craig has been an active voice in Congress following her education at the University of Memphis.

On May 17, 2025, Angie Craig marked the anniversary of a pivotal moment in American history. She stated, "Today marks the 71st anniversary of SCOTUS’ landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education.
