Noga Sklar

Noga Sklar was born in Tiberias, Israel, in 1952. She grew up in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and lived for 30 years in Rio de Janeiro, a city she eventually left behind to take refuge in Serenity Valley, a paradise among the mountains of Petropolis. Noga met her American husband Alan Sklar in 2004, through the American Jewish dating site, JDate. This meeting gave new impetus to her life and literary career, inspiring her first novel, No Degree of Separation, published in English in 2016. She now lives in Greenville, SC, where she moved with her husband in October 2014.
