About the Author

After a youthful life on stage working with such internationally acclaimed directors as Robert Wilson and Peter Schumann, in the early 1980s Helen Berggruen stepped away from the theater and began painting. Primary influences include Vincent van Gogh and early 20th-century French and German modernism. Based in San Francisco, Berggruen’s work has been exhibited in New York, San Francisco, Berlin, London, Southwest France, throughout Iowa and at the Demuth Museum in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
