Joanne Maria McNally 
Author

* 02.02.1964, United Kingdom

Joanne Maria McNally was born in the UK.

Since graduating from King's College London (1987), Joanne Maria McNally has spent extended periods of time in Berlin. Much of her poetry, fiction and historical work has been inspired by her association with the city and with Germany, as f. e. her poetic novella Hell Unlimited. Where Shakespeare met Goethe. The topic of her PhD (part published as a book in 2000) equally displays her relationship with Germany and its cultural history and investigates linguistic and cultural play.

She has initiated and developed a series of creative and intercultural projects, including a 'Century of German Cabaret' with the Academy of Arts Berlin (2001). Joanne has subsequently developed the idea for a 'Cabaret Forum' (an arts-based foundation bringing together poets, musicians, painters and satirists with a performance, educational and 'master class' focus).

Joanne Maria McNally took part in the European Voices Festival (Berlin, Nov 2008)
