Winner of the 2014 Joe Shuster Award for Best Canadian Cartoonist, Zviane studied music at Universite de Montreal before getting sidetracked by her growing interest in comics. A prolific author, she is the creator of For As Long As It Rains, Going Under, Zviane au Japon, Football-Fantasie, and many other award-winning books. Her comics career is in danger of being sidetracked by her growing interest in film. She currently lives in Montreal. Helge Dascher has for 25 years translated texts with a dynamic relationship to images. A background in art history and literature has grounded her translation of over sixty graphic novels, many by artists who have broadened the medium's storytelling range. Her translations included acclaimed titles such as Julie Delporte's This Woman's Work (co-translated with Aleshia Jensen, Drawn and Quarterly, 2019), Sophie Bedard's Lonely Boys (co-translated with Robin Lang, Pow Pow Press, 2020) and Michel Rabagliati's ""Paul"" books (Drawn and Quarterly, Conundrum). She also translates exhibitions, digital stories, and films, most recently Theodor Ushev's The Physics of Sorrow (with Karen Houle, NFB, 2019). A Montrealer, she works from French and German to English.
