Summary:

"Hadid grew up in Baghdad, Iraq, surrounded by music. She was a curious and confident child who designed her own modernist bedroom at nine years old. As a young woman studying at University in Beirut, she was described as the most outstanding pupil the teacher had ever met. With her ... vision and belief in the power of architecture, she founded her own firm and designed [world-famous] buildings ... including the London 2012 Olympic Aquatic Centre."-- provided by publisher.
