Timeline

1952

Mayra Montero (born 1952) is a well-known Cuban-Puerto Rican writer.

Montero was born in Havana, Cuba in 1952.

She is the daughter of Manuel Montero, a very successful Cuban comedic writer and actor who made his career in both Cuba and Puerto Rico, where he and his family relocated when Mayra was a young girl.

Manuel, whose pen name was "Membrillo", earned his greatest success playing "Ñico Fernández", a comedic character in Puerto Rican television.

This character was a Cuban immigrant with a habit of using hyperbole to describe his homeland and all things Cuban.

1957

Her most recent novel Son de Almendra is the product of an extensive research about the murder of the mafia leader Albert Anastasia at the Park Sheraton Hotel in New York in the year 1957.

1960

Mayra has lived in Puerto Rico since the mid-1960s.

She studied journalism in Mexico and Puerto Rico and worked for many years as a correspondent in Central America and the Caribbean.

1980

In the 1980s she was an editorial page editor for the now defunct El Mundo daily newspaper, at the time Puerto Rico's newspaper of record.

She is presently a highly acclaimed journalist in Puerto Rico and writes a weekly column "Antes que llegue el lunes" (Before Monday arrives) in El Nuevo Dia newspaper.

She is currently fighting cancer but continues an active professional life.

All of her books are written originally in Spanish and have been broadly translated to English and other languages.

Montero's first book was a collection of short stories, Twenty-Three and a Turtle.

Her second book, a novel titled The Braid of the Beautiful Moon, was a finalist for the Herralde awards, one of Europe's most prestigious literary awards.

Each of her subsequent books—The Last Night I Spent With You, The Red of His Shadow, In the Palm of Darkness, and The Messenger—has been published in the United States in translations by Edith Grossman, as well as in several European countries.

The slim novel or novella, The Last Night I Spent With You is perhaps the most sexually explicit.

Her other nonfiction work appears frequently in scholarly and literary publications throughout the world.
