Timeline
David Huerta (8 October 1949 – 3 October 2022) was a Mexican poet and the son of well-known poet Efraín Huerta.
His wife was the writer Verónica Murguía.
He was born in Mexico City, the son of the poets Efraín Huerta and Mireya Bravo Munguía, and was immersed from childhood in Mexico's literary environment.
He studied Philosophy, and English and Spanish literature at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
There he met Rubén Bonifaz Nuño and Jesús Arellano, who published his first book of poems, The Garden of Light.
Huerta spent many years translating and editing for the Fondo de Cultura Económica, an institution where he directed the magazine La Gaceta del FCE.
In addition to his poetry and essays, he wrote an opinion column in the political weekly Proceso.
He opposed cuts to the cultural budget by the Mexican government, struggling in particular to preserve the home of the poet Ramón López Velarde (whose library is named after Huerta's father), which has often been threatened by a shortage of resources.
He was a Fellow of the Mexican Writers' Centre (1970-1971), the Guggenheim Foundation (1978-1979), and the Fund for Culture and the Arts (FONCA).
He received numerous awards, most notably the Carlos Pellicer poetry award in 1990 and the Xavier Villaurrutia Prize in 2006.
Since 1993, he has been a part of the National System of Creators of Art.
His advocacy of literature and poetry was extensive as a coordinator of literary workshops in the Casa del Lago of UNAM, INBA, and Institute for Social Security and Services for State Workers.
He was also a teacher of literature at the Octavio Paz Foundation and the Foundation of Mexican Letters.
Of himself as a poet, Huerta said:
""I am a writer of rather traditional poetry.
I would say that what I do is a poetry of images, metaphors, similes, metonym, of all kinds of tropes and figures of speech.
Rather than the cult or devotion of the image, I am sure that through images we can still say things that help us live a little on the fringe of the market, if that's possible.""
