Anna Couani was born and grew up in Sydney. She studied architecture at the University of Sydney, then took an MA in Teaching English as a Second Language from the University of Technology Sydney. Since the 1970s she has participated in feminist activism, small press publishing and has taught art, English and ESL at secondary schools. Since 2014, she has run The Shop Gallery in Glebe with her husband, sculptor Hilik Mirankar. A concern with marginalised aspects of women's lives runs throughout her writing.
