Zorana Barger’s Early Life
Zorana Barger is the widow of the Hells Angel Sonny Barger, who was killed in a motorcycle accident in Texas in 1998.

Zorana Barger was born in the Bronx, New York City on September 16, 1969, the daughter of a Yugoslavian mother and an American father.

In 2012, Zorana was elected Vice President of the West Coast chapter of the Hells Angels. Sonny has also been involved in numerous criminal activities over the years, including membership in the Mongols Motorcycle Club and involvement in the Eighties LA gang war. In 1993, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison for his role in a shootout with rival gangsters.
In 2013, Zorana published her memoir, entitled Bone Deep: My Life With The Hells Angels. The book details her life as the wife of one of America’s most notorious bikers.
