Aleksandra Osman
Aleksandra Osman (born January 17, 1980 in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina) is a Croatian-Canadian screenwriter and producer.[1] [2]
She is the daughter of Davor Perinović, an orthopedic surgeon who founded the HDZ political party in Bosnia[3] and Jadranka Piragić, an ophtalmologist. After her parents divorced, her mother married TV and theater director Faruk Piragić[4] who would show as a great influence later on in Osman's education and career choices[5].
In 1996, she played the role of a Young Girl in a short documentary Ten Portraits of a Woman that aired on CBC as part of a documentary show 50/UP. She also co-produced and worked as the executive manager for Matrix Croatica TV, a bi-national TV company in Vancouver, BC in 1997. Working briefly for the ICTY in the Hague deepened her interest in human rights and had inspired her to define her writing style as human rights oriented. [6]
Her big break came in 2015, when she created a hit TV series Nemoj Nikome Reći[7], a teen show portraying youth "as they are today, not as their parents imagine them to be or would like them to be." [8] [9] [10] [11] Directed and co-written by Ivan Livaković, Nemoj Nikome Reći was the first Croatian show that had gay teen couple characters and had met with large public outrage in a traditionally Catholic country of Croatia.[12] [13] Despite the outrage, its popularity ensured it a two season run on Croatian National Channel HRT[14] [15][16] and starred well known Croatian cast such as Matija Prskalo[17] and Senka Bulić[18] .
Osman attended University of British Columbia and received a bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies - Romance Languages and Literature. She is fluent in Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, English, French and Spanish.[19]
Osman has been married to Darko Osman since 2001. and lives in Vancouver, BC, with their four children.
