Eve Har­ris was born to Israeli-Pol­ish par­ents in Chiswick, West Lon­don, in 1973. She taught for 12 years at inner-city com­pre­hen­sives and inde­pen­dent schools in Lon­don and also in Tel Aviv, after mov­ing to Israel in 1999. She returned to Lon­don in 2002 to resume teach­ing at an all girls’ Catholic con­vent school. The Mar­ry­ing of Chani Kauf­manwas inspired by her final year of teach­ing at an all girls’ ultra-Ortho­dox Jew­ish school in North West Lon­don. Eve lives in Lon­don with her hus­band, Jules, and their daugh­ter Rosie.
