Muriel Zagha

Muriel Zagha grew up in Paris where she studied English literature at the Ecole Normale Supérieure. She came to Britain at the age of 21, as a French lectrice at Cambridge University, and loved living here so much that she forgot to go home. After completing a PhD on Henry James, she escaped from academia into London’s fashion world. She now works as a freelance journalist, contributing to the Sunday Telegraph, the World of Interiors, Apollo, the Times Literary Supplement and the Guardian, and as a broadcaster on BBC Radio 4 and Radio3.

She lives in London with her English husband and their son.
