Queenie Goldstein

Queenie Goldstein was an American witch. She was the younger sister of Porpentina Scamander neé Goldstein and the sister-in-law of Newt Scamander.

Early life
Queenie was born somewhere in the United States of America in 1902 or later. She had at least one sibling, an older sister, Porpentina. The sisters apparently lost their mother and father when they were young, as they were described as having "raised each other," an experience which lead to them sharing a very deep bond into adulthood. They may have been of Jewish heritage.

Both sisters attended Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Later life
Queenie worked at the Magical Congress of the United States of America, having a menial desk job in the same department as her sister.

In 1926, Queenie was sharing an apartment in New York City with Porpentina, when the pair were introduced to the soon to be famous British magizoologist and future author Newt Scamander. Porpentina eventually married Newt and moved with him to the United Kingdom.

Personality and traits
Queenie was a free-spirited, kind-hearted woman, and was noted for her beauty, being described as a "bombshell". She was skilled in the art of Legilimency.
