She survived World War II and the Communist takeover in Hungary, from where she escaped in 1956. After nearly ten years living in exile in France and Germany, Agi moved to the US where she lived and taught in universities in Indiana, Texas, Georgia and Ithaca, New York. For fourteen years she played violin with the San Francisco Opera Orchestra. In 1993, Agi retired and moved to San Juan Island where she immediately started a chapter of Amnesty International. Shortly after, she began to write. Agi's first memoir, Tales From Hungary, published in 2002, illuminates her young adulthood amongst Bohemian artists, musicians and writers in Budapest. Truth Be Told: Life Lessons from Death Row chronicles the first six-years of her correspondence with Rich Nields, a death-row inmate in Ohio. Before her death in June, 2007, she completed, Memoirs Of A Stupid Woman, about the complexity of her life as a woman, an artist, and an activist.
