Helena Wayne was born in the South Tirol, northern Italy, the youngest of the three daughters of Bronislaw Malinowski and Elsie Masson. She has researched at length in her father's papers and has interviewed relations, friends and former students, building up a unique body of knowledge about her parents. She has been a reporter for Life magazine, book editor, and television producer for the BBC. Bronislaw Malinowski is known internationally as one of the founders of social anthropology, as the creator of modern fieldwork, as a great writer and an inspiring teacher.
