Eduardo Galeano fue un periodista, escritor y novelista uruguayo. Sus obras más conocidas son *Memoria del fuego* (1986) y *Las venas abiertas de América Latina* (1971), traducidas a veinte idiomas y que trascienden los géneros ortodoxos: combinan ficción, periodismo, análisis político e historia. El propio autor proclamó su obsesión como escritor diciendo: "Soy un escritor obsesionado con recordar, con recordar el pasado de América sobre todo y sobre todo el de América Latina, tierra íntima condenada a la amnesia". Galeano recibió el Premio Internacional de Derechos Humanos de Global Exchange (2006) y el Premio Stig Dagerman (2010).
