Suleika Ibáñez was born in Montevideo on 8 December 1930, the daughter of poets Roberto Ibáñez and Sara de Ibáñez. Her siblings were the writers Ulalume González de León and Solveig Ibáñez.[1][2] She was married to plastic artist Vladimiro Collazo, and was the mother of writer Marcia Collazo. Another daughter, Galia, died at a young age, and Ibáñez dedicated the 2002 book Galia, con quien tanto quería to her.[3][4]

She received awards in contests by Givré (Buenos Aires, 1976), Ediciones de la Banda Oriental (1985),[2] and the newspaper La Hora (1986).[5] In 1989, the Departmental Intendency of Montevideo awarded her two first prizes in poetry and narrative. That year, she and Ricardo Prieto shared a dramaturgy prize from the publishing house TAE. In 1998, she won first prize from Uruguay's Academia Nacional de Letras with an essay on Juana de Ibarbourou,[2] and an honorable mention from the Biblioteca Nacional for an essay on César Vallejo.[5] In 2010, she received the Cultural Career Award, during the Poets of the Two Shores Congress in Punta del Este, from the publishing house Botella al Mar.[1][5]
