Dalit R. Braun was the youngest CEO of a local economic development company in Israel by the time she was 27. She is the former CEO of the largest public real estate company in the country and established real estate companies and a technology company completely from scratch, growing them into large, profitable organizations.

Braun studied engineering, business administration, European business law, as well as two years of film production and one year of oceanography (back when she fantasized about being the next Jacques Cousteau).

After graduation, Braun traveled on her own for a year in both Asia and Australia and lived in London for almost two years. She was born in Israel, spent five years as a child in the US, and moved back to Israel as a teenager.

Not Bad, For a Woman is her first novel.
