Nadia Fink

Nadia Fink is an Argentine author, journalist, and editor known for writing the works in the Anti-Princess Series of picture book biographies of Latin American women. After studying proofreading, she worked as a copyeditor at the magazine Sudestada, and later as a writer. An interest in countering what she perceived as harmful gender roles in children's literature led Fink to cofound the independent publisher Chirimbote and create the Anti-Princess Series in 2015.

Early life
Nadia Fink was born in Cañadita, Santa Fe, Argentina. She described herself as having "a small-town childhood" and spending a lot of time playing outdoors in her youth. Fink lived in Rosario between 1986 and 1990, where she attended Provincia de Salta School 115. ==Career==
Career
Fink worked for several years doing administrative labor and teaching preschool. Alongside illustrator Pitu Saá and designer Martín Azcurra, Fink founded the independent publisher Chirimbote, which, along with Sudestada, published the first three titles in the Anti-Princess Series in 2015. Fink, Saá, and Azcurra sought out female figures in Latin American history whose stories they could tell to counter narratives they found harmful in older fairy tale and more recent princess narratives, such as those of Disney Princesses. Fink has also written a third series, the League of Anti-Princesses, in which historical figures from the other series join forces. As part of a collaboration between Chirimbote and Las Juanas Editoras in 2016, Fink edited the volume (#Not One Woman More from the Early Years), an academic work about gender equality responding to the Ni una menos movement, in which she also authored a chapter about generation of gender stereotypes through film and literature. In 2018, Fink and Laura Rosso compiled a number of stories about young people's experiences with gender, gender identity, gender roles, and gender stereotypes into a 224-page illustrated book called Feminism for Youths: Now They See Us, published by Chirimbote. The company, whose focus tends to be works on feminism, women's rights, and LGBTQ rights, has also published several books dealing with transgender identities for young people. Fink stated in 2016 that she felt she could never devote her life solely to children's literature. While working with Chirimbote on the picture book series, she continued to write and edit for the online Argentine news site Marcha. ==Personal life==
