About Sabina Berman:
Sabina Berman Goldberg is a playwright, storyteller, essayist, and film and theater director. She is one of the most prolific and daring writers within her generation and in the Spanish language. Her work deals mainly with the issue of diversity (human and animal) and its obstacles: the striving for domination, with its derivatives (authoritarianism, violence, discrimination). Her style features humor and irony, the distrust of all official discourse, subversion, the need to go beyond both sexual and theatrical boundaries, and the use of language itself. She is a four-time winner of the National Playwriting Award in Mexico (Premio Nacional de Dramaturgia en México)[citation needed] and the Juan Ruiz de Alarcon Award (Premio Juan Ruiz de Alarcón) She has twice won the National Journalism Award (Premio Nacional de Periodismo), in 1999 and 2007.
