- Bella Chagall, née Rosenfeld, was born to a prosperous Orthodox Jewish family in Vitebsk, Russia (present-day Belarus). She attended Russian language schools and became a student at the Faculty of Letters at Moscow University in her teens. In 1909, while visiting friends in St. Petersburg, she met Marc Chagall, and they became engaged despite her family's disapproval. The couple married in 1915 and had a daughter the following year. In 1922, they moved to France. Bella edited and translated Marc's autobiography Ma Vie . Her own work, the memoir Burning Lights, written in Yiddish in 1939, was published posthumously in English in 1946. A second volume, First Encounter, appeared in 1983. The Chagalls fled to the USA following the outbreak of World War II, settling in New York in 1941. Bella Chagall died in 1944, apparently of a viral infection.
