As a young man cleaning out his grandmother’s attic, EN HEIM found the dog-eared pages of her diary. Reading it, he felt a spark of inspiration. He decided to fulfill his grandmother’s wish and publish her story. He took a writing class and honed his skills, determined to do justice to her tale. Through this process, he discovered a new passion for writing that he had never explored before. He poured his heart and soul into the project, determined to capture the essence of his grandmother’s captivating storytelling. As he wrote, he felt a deep connection to her, like she was guiding his words from beyond. 

His passion lay in a different form of art – composition and design. While in high school, EN received a scholarship to study at the prestigious Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles (now California Institute of the Arts-Cal-Arts) in 1953, he discovered his knack for storytelling. He poured his heart and soul into each piece, using his skills to convey a story without words. But as he read his grandmother’s stories, he realized that perhaps words were the missing piece in his artistic puzzle.
