Lori Banov Kaufmann is a debut fiction author whose historical novel "Rebel Daughter" was inspired by a first-century tombstone discovery. After a multifaceted career spanning strategy consulting, entrepreneurship, and even co-authoring "The Ice Cream Lover’s Guide to Boston" during her graduate studies, she returned to her passion for writing. Her decade-long research collaboration with scholars and archaeologists reflects her commitment to historical accuracy in bringing ancient stories to life.
With a Princeton University AB and Harvard Business School MBA, Kaufmann transitioned from advising high-tech firms to full-time writing. Her background informs her meticulous approach to reconstructing historical narratives, as seen in "Rebel Daughter," which reimagines an ancient love story through rigorous research. She resides in Israel with her husband and their four adult children, drawing inspiration from the region's rich historical tapestry.
