ⓘ About Andre Aciman
Andre Aciman was born on January 2, 1951 and was raised and born in Alexandria, Egypt. He was born to Regine and Henri N. Aciman; his mother was deaf and his father owned a knitting factory. Aciman grew up in a home that spoke French, and other family members spoke languages such as Arabic, Italian, Latino, and Greek. Because he and his family were Jewish, they could not become citizens of Egypt, and attended British schools in Egypt. Growing up, he thought he was a French citizen, which was a mistake on his part. He and his family were Italian citizens, which started after they were forced out of Egypt due to more and more antisemitism on the part of President Gamal Abdel Nasser, in the year 1965. By the year 1968, they were living in New York City.
