Author Biography

REBECA ALEMÁN @rebecaaleman (Venezuela) Journalist, writer, pianist, TV, film & theater award-winning actress & producer. Founder and Executive Director of Water People Theater. I decided to dedicate myself to theater, film, journalism and to play the piano because I believe in the transformative power of Art. There are three words that are ever-present in every action I take and in every decision I make: Responsibility, Future, and Essence. To paraphrase Oliver Sacks, there is no time for anything inessential. The future is the result of every action we take. The future is responsibility. It is up to me to make the best decisions, not only for me and my family, but to have an impact in society, education, in having better countries and a better world. I think that one of the best decisions I have made in my life is to try to transform others through Art. I dream of a world that is possible. History tends to give us the ideal stage to play on, it's up to us to avoid choosing the wrong one.
