BIOGRAPHY
Elena S. Smith was born and raised in St. Petersburg, Russia, but by leap of faith, she moved to Moscow...Idaho in 1993. Why it happened is described in her fiction-documentary novel "Why Birches Are White" (2006), an insight to the depth of culture intricacies. The readers were so intrigued by it that they inspired the author to continue writing, and after many personal life changes and calamities, Elena published her second novel, contemporary fiction “Truths and Lies” (2023). Dr. Smith had taught English, Russian, film and culture at Washington State University for almost twenty years, and has recently retired. She now enjoys her freedom to travel, hike, read, golf and party with friends. She is thinking about writing a new story, maybe this time a mystery.
