The Universities at Shady Grove Immigration: Nowhere-Now Here Event

A child of European Holocaust survivors growing up in Latin America during periods of dictatorship, she shares her baggage with her characters who help her disseminate, transmit and transform it. But she carries not only the history of Jewish suffering in Europe, or of the terror in her own country, Argentina, but also, and more prominently, a deeper Biblical, kabalistic legacy where tradition, learning, myth, fantasy and imagination cross. In her work, she re-imagines these histories for new generations and for a future that must remember without being impeded and weighted down by past times.
