Nicolás Guillén
Nicolás Cristóbal Guillén Batista is a Cuban poet, journalist, political activist and writer. He is best remembered as the national poet of Cuba. Born in Camagüey, he studied law at the University of Havana, but gave up his legal career and worked both as a typewriter and as a journalist. His poetry has been published in various journals since the early 1920s; His first collection, Les Motivos de son, is strongly influenced by his meeting that year with the African-American poet Langston Hughes. He draws lipstick from his poetry. West Indies, Ltd., published in 1934, was Guillén's first collection of political implications. The Cuban dictatorship Gerardo Machado was overthrown in 1933, but his political repression intensified. After being jailed in 1936, Guillén joined the Communist Party the following year, traveled to Spain for the Congress of Writers and Artists, and covered the Spanish Civil War as a magazine journalist.
