Biography[edit]

Rosa Nissán Rovero was born in Mexico City on June 15, 1939. She studied journalism at the Women's University of Mexico.[1]

In 1992, she published her first novel Novia que te vea. It was made into a film, produced by Instituto Mexicano de Cinematografía and directed by Guita Schyfter [es], with a script co-written by Nissan and Hugo Hiriart. The novel addresses the issue of cultural integration of Jewish communities in Mexico and questions the traditional role of Jewish women, as well as the customs and traditions of the Sephardic community.[4][5][6][7]

In 1997, she published a chronicle of her trip to Israel in Las Tierras Prometidas (The Promised Lands).[4] Two years later, her second novel was published, Hisho que te nazca, a continuation of Novia que te vea, and that same year, some short stories were also published in No sólo para dormir es la noche (Not only to sleep is the night), where she brings together a collection of stories in which the problems of partner and loneliness are determining factors.[4][8]

From 2000 to 2002, she gave various workshops on fictionalized autobiography in the Casa del Lago Juan José Arreola, at the University of the Cloister of Sor Juana. and the Casa del Refugio.[3][1]
