Author of the acclaimed book Sharon and My Mother-in-Law. Suad is an architect by training and founder of Riwaq Center for Architectural Conservation in West Bank, Palestine. Suad turned to writing during a 42-day curfew imposed on the city of Ramallah by the Israeli Army in 2002. The Daily Mail wrote: “Faced with the choice between laughter and tears, Amiry gives us both. Spirited, thought-provoking and shockingly entertaining, Amiry knows how to end a story with laughter, but beneath it lies a steely pragmatism, and it’s this that gives hope for the region.                                         For a preview watch her TEDX talk at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bk7joCi-gXs        Sponsored by Palestine Aid Society- Ann Arbor
