Pamela Robertson-Pearce is an artist and filmmaker. Her films include IMAGO: Meret Oppenheim (1996), on the artist who made the fur-lined teacup, and Gifted Beauty (2000), about Surrealist women artists including Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo. IMAGO: Meret Oppenheim won several awards, including the Swiss Film Board's Prize for Outstanding Quality and the Gold Apple Award at the National Educational Film and Video Festival in America. She has shown her work in solo exhibitions in New York and Provincetown, and in various group shows in the US and Europe.

Born in Stockholm, she grew up in Sweden, Spain and England, then lived mostly in America - also working in Switzerland and Norway - before moving to Northumberland. She was educated at St Martin's School of Art, London, where she studied film and video for a BFA with Malcolm Le Grice, and later at Emerson College, Boston, USA, where she studied playwrighting and directing for a Master of Theatre Arts (including voice with Kristin Linklater).

She co-edited the anthology Soul Food: nourishing poems for starved minds (Bloodaxe Books, 2007) with Neil Astley, and worked with him on the DVD-book In Person: 30 Poets (Bloodaxe Books, 2008), filming all the poets whose work is included in the anthology. In 2009 Bloodaxe issued two more of her poetry films on DVDs with books, John Agard Live! with John Agard's Alternative Anthem: Selected Poems and Life is IMMENSE: visiting Samuel Menashe with Samuel Menashe's New & Selected Poems.
