Biography
editSusanne Kippel was born at Wittlich, a small town between Trier and Koblenz.[3] She later moved north, studying painting at the University of Fine Arts of Hamburg, following which she worked as a freelance photographer, contributing to national publications such as Zeit and Stern.[2] Starting in 1983 she undertook a succession of lengthy visits to the Caribbean - notably St. Lucia, Grenada and Jamaica - in order to undertake cultural comparative and ethnographic studies. That gave rise to her first documentary film, "Die Reise der Pilgrim Number One" ("Journey of the Number One Pilgrim"),[4] which won a special prize at the 1988 Paris Film Festival.
Since 1989 the focus of her writing has been on radio plays, the productions of which she usually undertakes herself. The "sounds and noises" incorporated in these are a particular feature. Her 1996 Bayerischer Rundfunk ("Bavarian Broadcasting") production of "Funky Yard" won the gold medal at the 1997 "International Radio Festival of New York".[5]
Personal
editSusanne Amatosero's younger brother is the author Christian Klippel.
