Cristina Ibarra

Based in New York City, Cristina Ibarra grew up on the U.S./ Mexico border between El Paso, Texas and Cuidad Juarez, Mexico. She creates films in the realms of non-fiction, fiction and satire that can be seen on public television, online and in galleries, museums, schools and film festivals across the United States. Her award-winning directorial debut, Dirty Laundry: A Homemad Telenovela, was broadcast nationwide on the PBS series, ColorVision, and Latino Broadcasting commissioned her interstitial, Grandma's Hip Hop. Banco Popular selected her mini-film script, Wheels of Change, for production at the 2007 New York International Latino Film Festival. Her first hour-long PBS documentary, The Last Conquistador, created with John Valadez, will have its national broadcast on POV this summer. Ibarra is currently developing two projects: a documentary entitled, Another Martha, and a feature film entitled, Love & Monster Trucks. Ibarra is also a founding member of fulana.org, Latina interdisciplinary collective.
