INTRODUCTION R­os is recognized as an important and influential American poet, whose verse often explores the dynamics of life on the borderlands between Mexico and the United States. Drawing on the oral storytelling tradition of his Chicano heritage, his poetry has been praised for its unique perspective on the American Southwest experience. Biographical Information R­os was born in the border town of Nogales, Arizona, on September 18, 1952, to a Mexican father and a British mother. As a young boy, he first learned Spanish; but like most Chicanos, he was forced to speak English when he attended school. By the end of elementary school he gave up speaking Spanish altogether. The juxtaposition between these two worlds—the English and Spanish—is a recurring theme in his verse. In junior high school R­os began to write poetry. In 1974 he received his bachelor's degree from the University of Arizona, and a year later he received another bachelor's, in psychology. He then enrolled in law school but quit in order to enroll in the Master's of Fine Arts program, which he completed in 1979. That same year, he published his first collection of poetry

skip to main skip to sidebar CREAM CITY COMICS **** blog home of amado 'arex' rodriguez **** Wednesday, December 12, 2007 Cream City Conversations with Alberto Rios As promised, I'm back with another interview. Alberto 'Ponbiki' Rios is up this time around. I've known this artist for nearly a decade. We've worked together on several different levels. Years ago, we were co-members of two studios... One Milwaukee-based and the other Chicago-based. My reason for interviewing Alberto has little to do with our shared artistic paths, though. Alberto is being courted by major publishers and animators. in short, he's a creator you should know. Editor's note - In my interview with GALVO, he mentioned being published by a Milwaukee-based studio I co-founded with two other Milwaukee creators. The books containing his works were volumes one and two of my own Cream City Comics. AR And now... CCC: For those who don't know, Name and location? Alberto Rios a/k/a Ponbiki, Milwaukee WI CCC: How did you become interested in creating comics? Well... I was young and ill, at age 9 or 10, my mom introduced me to comics from the drugstore. It was a reprint of the Avenger when they found Captain America in the ice... from then on I was hooked.

English Composition II - Dr. Lovell's class Twenty-Four Questions: A Conversation with Alberto Alvaro Ríos In October, 2001, writer Alberto Alvaro Ríos made a virtual visit to a web-based English composition class at Northwest Arkansas Community College in Bentonville/Rogers, Arkansas. The students had lots of great questions. From an online bio : "Ríos was born in 1952 in Nogales, Arizona, where he grew up along the Mexican border. His father was from Mexico and his mother from England, all of this giving his work an attentive, transcultural voice. Ríos currently holds the distinction of Regents' Professor at Arizona State University, where he has taught for almost 18 years."

I didn't even know such a low standard of professional poetics existed! I thought we left that sort of thing to the amateurs like my beloved noter "Rama". Our Talents 7 When you let Them define us 10 You've lost a war in winning the battle 1 strike out the words 11 They refused to sanction 6 or screw your brain 8 against the harsh lightbulbs: 3 your Interregators 0 who won their salt 9 in the same game 2 Fear of Failure, or 5 Worship Your Heroes 4 who told you 12 Never 2 experiment? hmm... it was probably the fault of this guy . ladies and gentlement, the poet laureate of the US of A. no fricking wonder. you all know what i think. i think poetry is the lowest form of artistic creation known to man but if you HAVE to create it** then you sure as hell shouldn't make it blandly accessible to everyone. the only thing worse than that is what our esteemed Poet Laureate correctly identifies as writing only for the critics. *to be clear- I have nothing against Janet Napolitano, about whom I know nothing more than that she governs a state about which I know nothing.
