Early life
Sorrah was born in Rio de Janeiro, to Míriam Leonardo Pereira and Peter Sochaczewski, a German Jew.
In 1964 she joined a cultural exchange program and went to Los Angeles, where she took dramatic arts cl*es and finished her studies. At that time California was the heart of the hippie movement and that influenced Sorrah's style.
When Sorrah returned to Brazil in 1967, she saw that the Brazilian cultural scene had hippie ideals. Even though she hadn't been a hippie, she adopted the hippie style.

Sorrah was married three times. She has a daughter, Mariana Simões, whose father is the director Marcos Paulo.
