Rajiv Joseph.

​He is the author of several plays, including Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo, which was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Drama in 2010.  Animals out of Paper, a play about an origami artist, was originally produced in New York in 2008.
 
“Origami” is a Japanese word meaning “folding paper.”  It refers to a form of art that originated in Japan during the 17th century.  This art-form—a kind of sculpture—involves folding paper in complicated ways to produce representations of various objects, usually from the natural world. Flowers, birds, and other animals are frequently the objects imitated in origami, though abstract geometrical forms can also be represented
