Sughra grew up in Karachi, Pakistan, along with siblings Abbas and Azra (above), and several others.

She feels most excited in a world of images, invention, art and music; and despite Fenway Park floodlights lighting up the sky in her windows, she remains oblivious to the Red Sox battling the Yankees a stone’s throw away.
