About the Author
Laura Volpintesta was born in Mexico City
and raised in Bethel, Connecticut, complet-
ing her BFA at Parsons School of Design,
NYC, in 1995 with one amazing year in Paris
surrounded by French couture, Japanese
avant-garde, and African prints and tailoring.
Born to gringo parents (in Mexico City)
and Italian immigrant grandparents, she has
always been curious about cultural cross-
pollination as well as the immigrant experi-
ence while growing up. Her parents’ love of
classical, contemporary, and folkloric world
music, literature, languages, and painting
culminated in her landing at Parsons New
York City in 1991.
