Alex Behar is an aspiring author and poet. Born in Seattle, WA in 1992, Alex has spent most of his young life in the Pacific Northwest, before moving to New York City, where he has lived for the past twelve years. Alex’s mother is a Muslim-born immigrant from Iran, who fled political turbulence in the late 70’s, and his father was raised in a Judeo-Spanish community, whose roots extend back to a small Island in Greece. This comingling of histories colors much of his works, and from it, a voice emerges that is both universal and unique.
