Born into a legacy of silence\, illiteracy\, and an ancestry of child brides\, Esther Amini shares her external and internal journey. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn something of the important\, but less known Jewish community residing in the holy Shiite city of Mashhad\, Iran; the experience of being a minority within a minority; to consider questions on how individual and couple psychodynamics interact with historical and cultural forces; the important\, but often overlooked role of siblings in individual development\, and the function of memoir writing as a therapeutic tool.\n\n\n\nSpeaker:Esther Amini\, LCSW\, is a writer\, painter\, and psychoanalytic psychotherapist in private practice. Her debut memoir is entitled: “CONCEALED”—Memoir of a Jewish-Iranian Daughter Caught Between the Chador and America. KIRKUS REVIEWS anointed “CONCEALED” one of the BEST BOOKS of “2020.” Katie Couric and Zibby Owens selected “CONCEALED” as one of their favorite books\, and showcased this memoir on Nov. 30\, 2021 at The Streicker Center in Manhattan.Esther Amini’s short stories have appeared in Elle\, Lilith\, Tablet\, The Jewish Week\, Barnard Magazine\, TK University’s Inscape Literary\, Proximity\, Paper Brigade\, and Medium.com.  Her essays can also be found in Zibby Owens’ Anthology: “Moms Don’t Have Time To\,” as well as in Zibby’s most recently published anthology: “Moms Don’t Have Time To Have Kids.” She was named one of Aspen Words’ best emerging memoirists and awarded its Emerging Writer Fellowship in 2016 based on her memoir: “CONCEALED.” Seven of her pieces have been performed by Jewish Women’s Theatre\, (a.k.a. The Braid)\, in Los Angeles and in Manhattan\, and she was chosen by Jewish Women’s Theatre as their Artist-in-Residence in 2019. Esther Amini is now working on her next book which will be a collection of short stories.
