I was honored to meet Elena Poniatowska this past tuesday. Her speech was so motivating for me. Even though her novels and her career as a journalist is facinating, her personality enriches your senses. I believe this is why the political topics she writes about have a human quality to them. In this picture, I am waiting in line with my cousin Marivel. We both rushed out of the auditorium just to be first in line. Elena Poniatowska is signing her books and patiently listening to the stories people have to tell her. She told us in private that listening to people is the best way to be inspired.
Will never foger this day!
