Alma Guillermoprieto (born Alma Estela Guillermo Prieto, 1949) is a Mexican journalist. She has written extensively about Latin America for the British and American press, especially ''The New Yorker'' and ''The New York Review of Books''. Her writings have also been widely disseminated within the Spanish-speaking world and she has published eight books in both English and Spanish, and been translated into several more languages.

Guillermoprieto began her career as a dancer (later the subject of two of her books: ''Samba'', 1990, and ''Dancing with Cuba'', 2004), before turning to journalism in 1978 and soon breaking the story of the 1981 El Mozote massacre by the army in El Salvador. In English, she has published two books collecting her long-form journalism on Latin America: ''The Heart That Bleeds'' (1994) and ''Looking for History'' (2001). She has also published three books collecting and translating her English reporting into Spanish. She has won a MacArthur Fellowship (1995), a George Polk Award (2001), and a Princess of Asturias Award (2018), among other honors. Provided by Wikipedia
