Authors, illustrators, readers, advocates for Latino literature, and book lovers of all sorts have suffered a great loss. Rose Treviño, former Youth Services Coordinator for the Houston Public Library, passed away on Friday. Rose was a dear friend and someone I truly admired. She was the type of person who would not hesitate to offer a helping hand, and was willing to introduce you to the right people to ensure your sucess, as she understood that one person's success in this field, signifies a success for the field as a whole. She worked tirelessly to make a difference and knew how to get things done. I consider myself lucky to have known her. Below, I have included a link to an interview I conducted with Rose some time ago for Críticas magazine. Anyone interested in Latino publishing should read this interview to become aware of the amazing work librarians do everyday to promote our books. My heart and thoughts go out to her family, and to everyone who had the pleasure of knowing Rose and is as saddened by this loss as I am. Feel free to comment below if you are so inclined.—Adrianahttp://www.criticasmagazine.com/article/CA6605985.html?industryid=48434
Update: Here is an article about Rose, published by SLJ on 5/3/10.
I was so sad to hear this news over the weekend. I had the opportunity to serve with Rose on the 2009 Newbery committee. She was a wonderful leader for us, and I know we all treasure the time we had with her.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind words about my mom. While I am saddened by the loss, I feel blessed that she was my mother. As great of a librarian she was, she was a better mother.
