Schwarzkopf, Sylvia

Sylvia Schwarzkopf was born in apartheid South Africa in 1951 and immigrated to Israel in 1970. She was awarded a scholarship to study journalism in London in 1968 but went to Israel instead. She is married, has five children and eleven grandchildren, and is the co-owner of an information technology analysis firm based in Israel.

With an active imagination and a deep interest in the human psyche, "Iran, Puppets and Strings" is her second published novel, after "An Apricot Tree in Africa".
