Exceptional journey

About Birgit

Birgit Treipl, born and raised in the Netherlands, holds a BA in Communications. She began her career in advertising and later founded a successful recruitment agency, specializing in placing professionals in marketing and communications roles.

Writing has been a constant in Birgit’s life, from crafting stories and ads to developing brochures and website content. Her true passion, however, lies in historical fiction. Birgit masterfully weaves together factual events and compelling characters, transporting readers to different times and places.

The inspiration for Even Without Blood came from the exceptional journey Birgit undertook with her father, Victor. Over six months, they conducted interviews via Skype, which became the foundation of her creative process.

In November 2021, Victor passed away peacefully in his hometown in France at the age of 90.
