Silvana Paternostro is a journalist who has written extensively on Cuba and Central and South America. She specializes in women's issues and has also written extensively about AIDS, revolutionary movements, and the intersection of literature, music, and other cultural forms with politics and economics. She is the author of In the Land of God and Man: Confronting Our Sexual Culture, which explores gender roles and the effect of government and religion on women's lives in Latin America and was short-listed for the PEN/Martha Albrand Award for First Nonfiction. Her exposé of "re-virginization" centers in the United States appeared the book Se Habla Espanol: Voces Latinas en USA, the first anthology of new Latino voices in the United States published in Spanish. She is a contributing editor of Bomb magazine, a New York's cultural magazine focusing on interviews between artists, writers, actors, directors, and musicians; and a frequent contributor to the New York Times Magazine, Newsweek, the Paris Review, the New Republic, and numerous other publications. Her work is frequently translated and reprinted in Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian. In 1999 she was selected by Time/CNN as one of fifty Latin American Leaders for the New Millennium. Currently she is at work on her second book, My Colombian War: A Journey through the Country I Left Behind, which mixes memoir with history and reportage to tell the story of Colombia's forty-year-old civil war and uncover the truth about U.S involvement in the country. It will be published by Henry Holt in November 2007.
