She lived in Athens and was nominated in 1990 for the Hans Christian
Andersen Award.

She died on August 9th.

It's bizarre how often Greek birth dates are hard to track down; even the Greek Wikipedia doesn't say just when in 1930 she was born!

One book available in English is "With Xenios in Greece" (1999).
