Nooshin Salari was born in Tabriz, Iran. She immigrated to Canada in 1992. She attended the University of Saskatchewan and obtained her degree in Pharmacy. Salari began writing short stories as a teenager in Tehran, Iran. Her first story, "School Library", appeared in 1980 in Negeen magazine. Since then, her stories have appeared in different literary magazines in Iran including The World of Words. Several of her stories have also appeared in various volumes of the Anthology of Short Stories by Iranian and world writers (selected by Safdar Taghizadeh) as well as a collection of short stories by contemporary Iranian female writers called At the Threshold of a Cold Season (selected by Toraj Rahnama and Susan Gaveri). Nooshin's first collection of short stories, The End of the Apple Tree, was published by Movarid Press in Tehran in 2004.
