Actress, dancer, choreographer and theatrical director Jean Binta Breeze grew up in rural Jamaica before she moved to in Kingston, where she soon established herself as a writer, performer and recording artist. Coming through on the rhythms and reverberations of reggae, Breeze is first known as a “dub poet.” She studied at what was then the Jamaica School of Drama, now the Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts. Her publications include the collection On the Edge of an Island (Bloodaxe Books, 2000), a collection of poetry and prose; Ryddim Ravings (Race Today, 1988) and Spring Cleaning (Virago, 1992). Ms. Breeze’s list of recordings includes Tracks with the Dennis Bovell Dub Band (LKJ Records, 1991) and Ryddim Ravings (Roir Records, 1987).
