Poile Sengupta
Poile Sengupta's work straddles five decades and all genres of writing. She is a playwright, poet, novelist and short fiction writer, both for children and adults. The sheer volume of her work for children is mindboggling—nearly two dozen books, and two dozen anthology entries. She has acted in the films The Outhouse and Shaitan. She was a member of the jury for the 2010 and 2012 Trinity Guildhall International Children's Playwriting Competitions, and for five years on the Governing Council of the National School of Drama, New Delhi.
