Marguerita was conceived in Tasmania, diagnosed as a tumor in Hobart, and born in Sydney, Australia to Salomea Fleischer Lauer, formerly a slave laborer for A.G. Nobel in Auschwitz-Birkenau, where she’d made bullets and had been told (incorrectly, it turned out) that her exposure to gun powder had left her infertile. Her number, tattooed on her left arm, was A-26.427. Mea, a cousin of the great animators Max and David Fleischer and of Bruno Jasienski, the author of Paris is Burning, liked to tell Marguerita that the tattoo was her phone number. Marguerita’s father, Dr. Stefan Felix Bornstein, was a Chemical and Textile Engineer and a writer published in Poland, France, Brazil, Switzerland and Germany. In 1976, Marguerita moved to New York City, where she still lives, along with husband and her two sons. Her illustrations have appeared in the New York Times, the Village Voice, and the Forward. She did book covers for the writers Reinaldo Arenas and Ariel Dorfman (Viking),besides working on her own book projects ,Fragebogen:A Book of Memories,The Fantastic Stefan & his Carroteers and other pursuits as Sketchbook: Comicollages,Suenos,Suspiros or Stepping back into my Skin, Non Ducor Duco : Watercolor series ( Water,Scherzo,Sperm & etc),the Comic Strips : The Hormones and Zyg and Mea,Jewelry (wax into metals) Les Insectes,Drawings,Box Art and Sculptures.
