Starting Over with Anika Pavel

Be Impactful by Impact Fashion

Rivky sits down with author Anika Pavel to talk about her life. She shares what it was like growing up under communism and how she was able to get out, why she doesn’t believe in age when you’re too young or too old and why she wanted to write a book you could easily put down.

ANIKA PAVEL was born Jarmila Kocvarova in Czechoslovakia. What was intended as a one-year stay in England turned her into a refugee when the Soviet Union invaded her homeland, writing a bloody end to the Prague Spring. She received a crash course in life that took her from sleeping in a telephone booth at the Victoria railway station in London to waitressing, to the lights of the fashion runway, and on to magazine covers, even a James Bond appearance, under the more pronounceable moniker, Anika Pavel. When the lights had dimmed, she returned to her first love, writing. Her work has been published in print, online and nominated for a Pushcart Prize.
