Lia Sturua was born in Tbilisi in 1939. She graduated from Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University's Georgian Philology faculty in 1957. Since 1962 she has been giving lectures at Tbilisi State University. In 1974 she defended PhD thesis on “Artistic function of the Colour in Galaktion Tabidze’s Poetry”. 

In her exquisite, deep, elegant and emotive poetry she creates a landscape of sounds. Her first poetry volume called Trees in the City was published in 1962. Since then she published 12 poetry books and also novels and essays. Her poems are included in Georgian poetry anthologies and in The World Female Poems Anthology published in Paris and are translated into German, French, English and Finnish. In 1997 the Norwegian television company made a film about Lia Sturua.
