Who is Anna Sorokin?

Delvey was born Anna Sorokin in a Moscow suburb in 1991, and later moved to Germany with her family in 2007. She then relocated to Paris, where she started going by Anna Delvey, a ruse she kept up when she traveled on to New York City in 2014. While in New York, she conned her way into an extravagant lifestyle, skipping out on hotel bills and rubbing shoulders with the city's elite—and stealing from them.
