Did you know

Edit
  • Trivia
    Worked as a literary agent (her father's profession) while going to law school and singing with her brother Rollo's band, Faithless.
  • Quotes
    (On her unusual name) "To be called one thing and christened another is actually very confusing and annoying. It's one of the most irritating things that my parents did to me. I'm still irritated by it. Florian is a German man's name. That's just mean. To give your child a whole lot of odd names. They were all so embarrassing."
