Childhood

Henriett did not make eye contact in her early childhood. In 1987, all the primary schools in her town refused her admission application because of her communication problems. She was placed in a music and art class,[2] but she never sang songs, so, in 1989, she was sent to a mentally handicapped primary school by two teachers, although she remained in music and art class.[3]

She played flute at the age of 8 and played contrabass at the age of 10–12, and until the age of 13, she was in many concerts in the Garrison and Soldiers of Club (in Hungarian: Helyorsegi Klub)[4][5]

She was also found to have echolalia, communications problems and repetitive behaviors.[6] She was diagnosed with childhood autism by Hungarian Autism Research Group (Autizmus Alapítvány és Kutatócsoport) and two psychiatries of Eger.

Henriett started writing between the ages of nine and thirteen. She painted autistic art paintings to the House of Arts, Eger,[7] and Hotel Stadion of Budapest in the East-European Autism Conference, 2004.

That work was published by University of Pécs, in the New Galaxy anthology. Henriett won the 6th-place prize in the International Literature Competition in 2000, at the age of 19. She came in first in 2001, at the age of 20 (by International Alliance of Hungarian Writers).

She showed her last art work in Brody Sandor Public Library in June 2007.[10][11][12] She gave up creative writing altogether at the age of 25 and she also gave up creative painting altogether before the age of 27.[13] In 2005, she wrote a book, Autizmussal önmagamba zárva ("Closed into myself with autism"), that was published by the Hungarian Autism Research Group and Ministry for National Cultural Heritage.
