==Biography==
Mira was born in Jakarta on 13 September 1951 to film producer Othniel Widjaja and his wife; she is the youngest of five children. Her brother Willy Wilianto became a filmmaker like his father. While in elementary school, she took up writing, which garnered support from her teachers. One of her teachers sent a short story Mira had written to a children's magazine, where it was published. Mira's first short story submitted on her own, entitled "Benteng Kasih" ("Fortress of Love") in ''Femina'' magazine in 1975, while she was attending medical school at Trisakti University. Her first novel, ''Dokter Nona Friska'' (''Miss Friska's Doctor'') was serialised in ''Dewi'' magazine in 1977; her second novel, ''Sepolos Cinta Dini'' (''As Innocent as Puppy Love'') soon followed. The following year, she published ''Cinta Tak Pernah Berhutang'' (''Love has Never Been in Debt'').
After graduating from Trisakti in 1979, she became a lecturer of medicine at Prof. Moestopo University in Jakarta. Mira's most successful book, ''Di Sini Cinta Pertama Kali Bersemi'' (''Here Love First Blossomed''), was published in 1980.〔 She continues to produce works, drawing from writers such as Nh. Dini, Agatha Christie, Y. B. Mangunwijaya and Harold Robbins for inspiration.〔 Mira has been cited as an early inspiration for another ethnic Chinese Indonesian female writer, Clara Ng.
