Michael Fekete was born in the old Yugoslavia. During the great upheavals of the last century, his birthplace belonged either to the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, or Yugoslavia, or Hungary. He was two months old when his mother took him to Hungary where he grew up under the Stalinist regime imposed by the Kremlin. His rebellious acts sent him from school to prison. Finally, he managed to escape and after a brief stay in a refugee camp in Italy, he arrived in Canada where he lives and works in Toronto.
