Notes

Description
Waris Dirie ran away from her oppressive life in the African desert when she was barely in her teens, illiterate and impoverished, with nothing to her name but a tattered shawl. Today she lives in New York, pursuing an extraordinary dual career as an international supermodel and a United Nations special ambassador who travels the world as an articulate and passionate advocate of human rights.
