1. Introduction
Welcome to the Mira Furlan newsgroup FAQ.
1.1 Formatting
===============
This document is laid out a certain way. It might look funny on your
screen. If you are looking at it using a text editor that uses a fixed
system font and has a minimum of 76 columns display, it should look
fine. Otherwise, lines and such may not appear properly. If you're
using a word processor such as WordPerfect or Microsoft Word, you can
get the document layout right by setting your left and right page
margins to 1 inch, and using the Courier New font, at a 10 point size.
This will also allow you to print the FAQ with proper formatting.
1.2 Basic Netiquette
=====================
Here are some good guidelines to follow when reading not only this
newsgroup, but any Usenet group.
Read the newsgroup for at least a week before posting.
-------------------------------------------------------
Reading what other people post for a while gives you a basic idea of
what regular readers of the group are interested in discussing.
Avoid excessive cross-posting.
------------------------------
Cross-posting is when an identical message is posted to two or more
newsgroups. Sometimes a cross-post is appropriate and can create
interesting discussion between readers of several newsgroups.
Also be aware of the message headings, which include information about
which groups the message is being posted to. If you reply to a
message that has been cross-posted, your reply is automatically
cross-posted to the same groups as the original post, unless you edit
the message header.
Don't post in HTML
------------------
HTML is for websites, it is unnecessary in usenet. It simply adds to
the size of your posts and puts a greater strain on the system. Some
ISPs have begun to drop HTML posts to usenet, so your message may not
be propagated properly.
Don't spam.
-----------
Spamming is different from cross-posting in that spamming involves
posting the same message to a zillion newsgroups for the purposes of
advertising. Ask a 'net-savvy friend to tell you the story of The
Green Card Lawyers. Spamming is kind of like junk mail. It's
intrusive and you generally don't want to read it. Anyone who's
spamming is most likely not reading this anyway, but hey, you can't
say I didn't try.
Warning: the maintainer of this FAQ is a dedicated anti-spammer and
spam and other abusive postings will be reported to the posters ISP.
Also, anyone choosing to send me abusive or threatening email should
be aware that I will post said email to the newsgroup and/or report
said email to your ISP at my discretion.
Respect others as you'd like to be respected.
---------------------------------------------
The Internet is the ultimate forum for free speech: you can say what
you like to a potential audience of millions all over the world. Just
be aware that not everyone wants to hear what you have to say. And
for those of you who want to tell everyone what's acceptable speech
and what's not, don't. We're all adults, and if we're not, we should
be supervised.
1.3 About the FAQ and its sources of information
=================================================
A lot of the same questions get posted to this newsgroup from time to
time. Thus, they are Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ). The aim of
this FAQ list is to answer some of those questions on a regular basis.
The information in this FAQ comes from various sources: Mira's
autobiography as released by her Fan Club, Martin Albert, Mark Maher,
my own knowledge, conversations with Mira, magazine articles, web
sites and posts to alt.fan.mira-furlan. No specific sources are
quoted as I cannot remember where I got all of the information. If you
contributed something to this FAQ, you know who you are and I thank
you.
This FAQ is not meant to be the definitive Mira Furlan bible. I've
included some biographical info, some answers to Frequently Asked
Questions, and a filmography. This FAQ doesn't go into microscopic
detail because I've also listed some Mira related Internet sites, and
what's fun in checking them out if you don't discover some new
information there?
1.4 Where can I get a copy of the FAQ?
=======================================
The FAQ is posted to alt.fan.mira-furlan monthly. The FAQ will also
be posted to alt.answers and news.answers.
The most recent update of the FAQ is available in ASCII text form on
the World Wide Web at: http://www.zlatna.com/MFfaq.txt
1.5 Spoiler policy
===================
The only policies about spoilers is to keep it Mira Furlan/"Delenn"
related and that you begin the message with a generous amount of
spoiler space (empty lines).
1.6 Binaries policy
====================
Binaries are neither welcome nor encouraged in alt.fan.mira-furlan.
The regulars and lurkers in the group have indicated to me that they
would prefer this group to be binary free. Also a great number of
ISP's now drop or cancel binaries that are posted to groups that are
not within the alt.binaries hierarchy.
If you have a binary that you wish to share with the group please put
it on a website, or post it to alt.binaries.multimedia.babylon5 or
alt.binaries.pictures.celebrities then send a post to afmf as to where
we can find it.

2. Frequently Asked Questions
2.1 Who is Mira Furlan
======================
Mira Furlan is a noted former Yugoslavian actress, currently best
known to the western world for her portrayal of the Minbari Ambassador
"Delenn" on the award winning series Babylon 5. Her Yugoslavian
credits include Emir Kusturica's "When Father Was Away on Business"
("Otac na sluzbenom putu"), winner of the "Palme d'or" at Cannes for
best film in 1985, which was also nominated for an Oscar that same
year, and Rajko Grlic's "Three for Happiness" ("Za srecu je potrebno
troje"). She is also the winner of two Golden Arena's (Yugoslavia's
equivalent of the Oscar), for Best Supporting Actress for her role in
"Cyclops" ("Kiklop") in 1982 and for Best Actress for her portrayal of
"Jaglika" in "The Beauty of Vice" ("Lepota poroka") in 1986, as well
as winning Yugoslavia's most prestigious theatrical award, the
Dubravko Dujsin, in 1990 for her portrayal of Natalya Petrovna in
Turgenev's "A Month in the Country" at the Croatian National Theatre.
In 1995 she won the Dramalogue Theatre Award for Best Actress for
"Antigone" (which also won Best Production, and Best Director for her
husband Goran Gajic) staged at the Hudson Guild Theatre in Los
Angeles.
2.2 Biographical Information
============================
Ms. Furlan was born on the 7th of September in Zagreb, then part of
the former Yugoslavia, now the capital city of the Republic of
Croatia. She grew up surrounded by books and learning in the company
of three university professors, her father and mother (Branka Weil),
and her grandmother (Ljuba Kosar). Mira's grandmother taught her to
speak German at an early age and then later French, and her mother,
who was an avid theatregoer, introduced her to the magic of the
dramatic arts when she was still very young. The high school that she
attended was heavily oriented towards English and other languages, and
it was there that she had her first taste of acting thanks to one of
her teachers, an Englishman named David Jolley(sp?).
Mira went on to attend the University of Zagreb, to further her
language studies with the original intention of pursuing a career as a
simultaneous translator, and at the same time enrolled in Zagreb's
Academy for Theatre, Film and Television. During her second year at
the academy she began to get her first acting jobs and by her fourth
year there was starring in a series on Zagreb TV ("Velo Misto" or "The
Little Big Town"). Ms. Furlan then became a member of the Croatian
National Theatre Company where she played major parts in the world's
dramatic classics, including works by Shaw, Moliere and Brecht. She
also performed regularly at the Dubrovnik Summer Festival, playing
"Ophelia" in a production of "Hamlet" directed by the brilliant
Czechoslovakian director Jiri Menzel ("Closely Watched Trains") and as
"Gloria" in Marinkovic's "Gloria". Her first film role in 1982 won her
the Golden Arena for Best Supporting Actress.
Singing in a band for the fun of it in the mid-1980's, she met a
young, charming director who had come to do a rock video of one of the
songs. The video never did get made, but Mira had met the love of her
life, and her husband to be, the talented director Goran Gajic. He was
studying film in Belgrade at the time so Mira moved there to be with
him and began to take roles at some of the Belgrade theatres but
continuing to work in her hometown of Zagreb as well.
As the former-Yugoslavia began to tear itself apart in 1991 with
nationalist sentiments, ethnic divisions and war, Ms. Furlan was
performing at BITEF, an international theatre festival in Belgrade,
along with actors from all over the world. Her statement in the
program, that art should not serve any political or nationalist ideas,
angered fanatics on both sides of the conflict and a campaign of
hatred was begun against her in the press. Publicly vilified and
subjected to abuse, she was accused in Croatia of treason and dubbed
the "Serbian whore", and branded as a spy in Serbia. Strangers called
her and left messages on her answering machine describing in lurid
detail exactly how she was to be brutally massacred. Yet she received
not a single call from any of her friends or colleagues.
On the first of November 1991, she penned the powerful epistle "A
Letter to My Co-Citizens" which was published in the newspapers in
both Belgrade and Zagreb. Some two weeks later she and her husband
flew from Belgrade to New York to begin their new lives.
Mira has found, and won the hearts of, a new audience with her
compelling portrayal of the Minbari Ambassador "Delenn", on the award
winning series "Babylon 5". Since her arrival in the U.S. she has also
performed in a number of theatrical productions, a made-for-television
movie, and released a new CD.
In 1998, Mira gave birth to her and Goran's first child. Marko Lav
Gajic, a healthy 6 lb. 10 oz, 19 inch baby boy, was warmly welcomed at
5:45 am PST on December 15 at Cedars of Sinai Medical Center. The
Gajic family currently resides in Los Angeles, California.
In the summer of 2002 Ms. Furlan returned to Croatia to work for the
first time in eleven years, to star in the Ulysseys Theatre Company's
production of Medea on Mali Brijuni.
2.3 Where can I write to Mira Furlan?

autograph, please write to her at one of the following address.
Please be sure to include a self-addressed stamped envelope (with
sufficient postage) with all correspondence that you would like to

she's a very busy lady.

The Fan Club published a quarterly newsletter which accepted original
artwork, poetry, short stories, and articles, as well as photos,
pen-pals, and classified ads.
The Fan Club is currently inactive.
2.5 Mira's Birthday
====================
Ms Furlan's birthday is September 7th
There are places on the net where her year of birth is listed. At
best this is a piece of unconfirmed speculation. It is based on math
done from information in an article that used a pieces of Ms. Furlan's
"Letter to My Co-Citizens" without her permission. Unfortunately it
has been bandied about on the net for so long that some sites are
starting to quote it as gospel. In my opinion it could be out by as
much as five years.
2.6 Her favorite colors
========================
When Mira was a guest at Earthstation Edmonton in March 1997, during
her second presentation she was asked what her favorite colour was.
She answered purple, mauve and pink, all colours that are forbidden on
stage.
Interestingly her costumes from "Cranes" were purple and hot pink.
2.7 Charities she supports
===========================
Mira Furlan gives her support to many good causes.

4. Mira Furlan on the Internet
4.1 Mira's "Letter to My Co-Citizens"
=======================================
In my opinion the single most important thing pertaining to Mira on
the internet. Her own words will give you more of an idea of who this
lady is than anything anyone else could ever say. Written as a
farewell to the people of Yugoslavia on November 1st, 1991 in Belgrade
and published in "DANAS", Zagreb (11/05/91) and "POLITIKA", Belgrade
(11/10/91).
Copies are available in the following places:

endorsed this site. They have some beautiful shots of her, as well
as publicity stills of "Delenn". I have ordered items from them
and I'll vouch for their superb packing skills and prompt delivery
times.
This site also has a wonderful photo gallery with some beautiful shots
from Mira's European film and stage performances.
This is the only site that Mira currently considers as her official
site.

of "John and Delenn" junkies here. This mailing list also sometimes
