Biography
Well-known author, journalist, and child of survivors, Helen Epstein’s published works include the non-fiction trilogy Children of the Holocaust, Where She Came From, and The Long Half-Lives of Love and Trauma. In 2020, she edited and annotated her mother’s 1974 memoir, Franci’s War. Her pioneering work on the inter-generational transmission of trauma paved the way for hundreds of works by second-generation writers, artists, and researchers and has been widely translated.
Born in Prague in 1947, Helen grew up in New York City. In addition to her 11 books, her reviews and articles have appeared in the Sunday New York Times, Washington Post, Boston Globe, New York, Esquire, and NewYorker.com. She lives in Massachusetts and has two grandchildren in Montreal.
