Samira Iravani is a New York native and graphic designer working in the publishing industry for nearly a decade. She is currently an Associate Art Director with the Macmillan Children's Publishing Group. Prior to that she was an Associate Art Director at Clarion Books (an imprint of HarperCollins), and a member of the Penguin Young Readers design group.
She is also co-author of the picture book, Mama Shamsi at the Bazaar (Dial BFYR), inspired by her mother’s childhood in Tehran, Iran.
Outside of design and writing, Samira’s passions lie in the esoteric arts. She is a student of astrology, tarot, and herbalism, among many other crafts. You can find some of her offerings in those disciplines on this site.
Why Such Dainties? These two words were borrowed from the poem "Turtle Soup" in Chapter Ten of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. They were used to claim her first creative space on the internet (sigh, livejournal) and have been part of her online presence ever since.
