When Waris Dirie was barely out of her teens, she fled her terrible existence in the African desert. She was poor, uneducated, and had nothing on her person save a frayed shawl. Her incredible journey began when she crossed the treacherous Somali desert by herself and made her way to Mogadishu. From there, she worked as a house servant in London, toured almost the whole world as a well-known fashion model, and finally arrived in New York City to become a U.N. human rights ambassador. Her incredible journey is told in Desert Flower.
