Hebert Poll Gutierrez
Hebert Poll Gutierrez is a Cuban Canadian author, storyteller, poet, and playwright with 16 years of experience currently based in Calgary. He believes in the power of stories and theater to shape realities. Art is his strategy to defend his triple cultural identity: his identity as an artist, a Cuban, and Afro-descendant.
Hebert has published nine books in several genres (poetry, theater, and short fiction). Some of his writings appear in magazines and more than 20 anthologies from Cuba, Venezuela, Canada, Spain, the United States, Mexico, Germany, and other countries. Companies from Latin America, Europe, and Canada have represented his theater scripts.
He is a member of several cultural organizations in Canada. Among them, we can mention SpanicArts Calgary, Playwrights Guild of Canada, ICAI (Immigrant Council for Arts Innovation), FAVA (Film and Video Arts Society Alberta), Alberta Media Arts Alliance Society (AMAAS), Storytellers of Canada (Toronto).
