I was born in Istanbul in 1949. I spent my childhood in the Jewish neighborhoods of Istanbul: Sishane,
Kuledibi. I am the product of both my ethnic background (Sephardic Jew) and and my homeland Turkey.
I graduated from American College for Girls in Istanbul 1969 and later spent 6 years in Israel,
partly going to the Art academy in in Jerusalem. On my return to Istanbul after 1975 I worked at various
technical drafting jobs and immigrated to the United States in 1981.
Since then I have lived in New Mexico, Ohio, Tennessee and Missouri. Currently I work as a Reference
Assistant at the Washington University in St. Louis and I am in the process of completing a graduate
degree in Library Science. My hobbies are painting, Turkish Cooking, helping the Turkish student
community organize activities, and recently writing short stories In Judeo-Spanish about my childhood
memories.
