Biography

Sabine Macher was born in West Germany in 1955. She went to France while completing her German studies and ended up staying. A writer, translator of poetry, and photographer, she is also involved in contemporary dance, theater, and performance art. It is dance, moreover, that has led her to transforming her public readings most often into performance pieces. Since 1992 she has been writing books as well. The L Notebook (La Press, 2014) is available in English. Producing audio pieces and radio productions, Sabine Macher returns the essential spoken word to its place in poetry and documentaries.
