Latino poet shines spotlight on Lawrence – Martin Espada – Massachusetts

Tagged: , , ,

“He started as a bilingual education lawyer in the Boston area. Then he defended tenants against ruthless landlords in Chelsea.

But the whole time, Martin Espada was really a poet.

Since 1982, the Brooklyn-born, Northeastern University-trained lawyer has published eight collections of poetry and has become one of the most regarded poets in Latino and American literature. He has given readings around the world and appeared on PBS poetry specials.”*
