Nina Willner

Nina Willner is the author of Forty Autumns, which Publishers Weekly called “a thrilling and relevant read” and which is still being feverishly read by book clubs eight years post-publication. Prior to her writing career, Nina was a US Army intelligence officer, who served in Berlin during the Cold War. Following her career in intelligence, Nina worked in Moscow, Minsk, Prague, Ottawa and Istanbul promoting human rights, children’s causes, and the rule of law for the US Government, nonprofits, and a variety of charities. She is married, has three grown children, and after a life living abroad, has settled in Washington, DC. Her father, Eddie Willner, survived the Holocaust, and this is his story.
