Anaïs Nin
French-born American author (1903–1977)
Angela Anaïs Juana Antolina Rosa Edelmira Nin y Culmell[a] (AN-eye-EESSNEEN;[1]French:[ana.isnin]; February 21, 1903 – January 14, 1977) was a French-born American diarist, essayist, novelist, and writer of short stories and erotica.

As my dissertation director at N.Y.U., she inspired me to write an ambitious piece of work that was immediately published.
I will not quickly forget Anna’s challenge to a member of the English Department during my thesis defense. She threatened to walk out if he did not change his line of questioning which, she declared, was not appropriate for an oral exam. Later, when I told her I was planning to marry a Serb, she exclaimed, at a reception at the French House, “Oh! That’s wonderful! Serbs are very passionate people!”
