Margarita Guerrero

Argentine writer From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Margarita Guerrero was an Argentine dancer and writer.[1] She is known[weasel words] for her collaborations with Jorge Luis Borges, with whom she co-wrote and edited Book of Imaginary Beings and El "Martín Fierro".[2][3][4] As his eyesight failed, Borges relied increasingly on collaborators in creating his work, of which Guerrero was one. Her role in Book of Imaginary Beings is thought[by whom?] to have been that of a researcher and compiler.[1]
