IMAN M'FAH TRAORE

Iman M'Fah-Traoré is a Paris-born, New-York-raised, Afro-Brazilian writer who recently moved to Ericeira, a quaint coastal Portuguese town. Raised by two families stretched across two continents and four cultures, Iman has always questioned the notion of belonging. Alongside family structures and multiculturalism, thematically, she grounds herself in queerness, work-life balance, and grief. Iman has been featured in The Guardian, Insider, and literary magazines including miniMAG, Mania Magazine, Bending Genres, NeverApart, and PapersPublishing. Find her on all the things @imanmft and on her website imanmft.com.
