My name is ILANA G Holloway. I defected from communist Romania in 1983—before their revolution in 1989, and I am a first-generation immigrant to New York. I am a political refuge, and I worked for 20 years as an architect in New York. I have a Master's Degree in Architecture and Urban planning. I was the Project Architect for the Time Square Tower skyscraper, working for Skidmore Owings and Merrill—under the name of Ilana Gavin. I live since 2015—with my husband and pets—in the Lake Chapala area, south of Guadalajara in Mexico. We are now Mexican Permanent Residents. Nowadays, I write full time. My autobiography—Life by Design-Tales of a Dracula Baby Immigrant— will be published and released later this year by Olympia Publishing in London.
