Ana Estrella Santos (born in Quito) is an Ecuadorian dialectologist and writer. She is a professor at the Pontifical Catholic University of Ecuador (PUCE) in Quito. Estrella received the Aurelio Espinosa Pólit prize in 2013.

Biography

Estrella obtained a doctorate in Hispanic Philology and General Linguistics at the National University of Distance Education in Madrid. Since 1998, she has been a researcher and later became the director of the Linguistic Atlas of Ecuador project at the PUCE, a research project in the development phase that aims to map the way Ecuadorians speak solely in the Spanish language. She was a professor at the Universidad San Francisco de Quito before becoming a professor at the Faculty of Communication, Linguistics and Literature of the PUCE, and director of the School of Literature at PUCE.

Estrella received the Aurelio Espinosa Pólit National Literature Prize in 2013, awarded by PUCE, for her book La curiosidad mató al alemán, (Curiosity Killed the German), where she highlighted the role of communication and vindicated the importance of freedom of expression that can be affected by the law in force in the country of Ecuador. She has also taken part in the jury that awards these awards. She published two previous books; this is her first of short stories.
