Considered one of the leading voices in Chicana experience, Castillo is known for her experimental style as a Latina novelist. Her works offer pungent and passionate socio-political comment that is based on established oral and literary traditions. Castillo's interest in race and gender issues can be traced throughout her writing career. Her novel Sapogonia was a New York Times Notable Book of the Year. She is the editor of La Tolteca, an arts and literary magazine. Castillo held the first Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz Endowed Chair at DePaul University. She has attained a number of awards including an American Book Award from the Before Columbus Foundation for her first novel, The Mixquiahuala Letters, a Carl Sandburg Award, a Mountains and Plains Booksellers Award, a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts in fiction and poetry and in 1998 Sor Juana Achievement Award by the Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum in Chicago.[1] Early life and educationCastillo was born in Chicago in 1953, the daughter of Raymond and Rachel Rocha Castillo.[2] Her mother was Mexican Indian and[3] her father was born in 1933, in Chicago.[4] She attended Jones Commercial High School and Chicago City College before completing her BS in art, with a minor in secondary education, at Northeastern Illinois University.[2][6] Ana Castillo received her MA in Latin American Studies from the University of Chicago in 1979, after teaching ethnic studies at Santa Rosa Junior College and serving as writer-in-residence for the Illinois Arts Council.[2] She has also taught at Malcolm X Junior College and later on in her life at Sonoma State College.[4] Instead of a traditional dissertation, she submitted the essays later collected in her 1994 work Massacre of the Dreamers.[2] Castillo, who has written more than 15 books and numerous articles, is widely regarded as a key thinker and a pioneer in the field of Chicana literature.[6] She has said, "Twenty-five years after I started writing, I feel I still have a message to share."[4] CareerCastillo writes about Chicana feminism, which she refers to as "Xicanisma," and her work centers on issues of identity, racism, and classism.[5] She uses the term "xicanisma" to signify Chicana feminism, to illustrate the politics of what it means to be a Chicana in our society, and to represent the Chicana feminism that challenges binaries regarding the Chicana experience such as gay/straight black/white. Castillo writes, "Xicanisma is an ever present consciousness of our interdependence specifically rooted in our culture and history. Although Xicanisma is a way to understand ourselves in the world, it may also help others who are not necessarily of Mexican background and/or women. It is yielding; never resistant to change, one based on wholeness not dualisms. Men are not our opposities, our opponents, our 'other'".[6] She writes, "Chicana literature is something that we as Chicanas take and define as part of U.S. North American literature. That literature has to do with our reality, our perceptions of reality, and our perceptions of society in the United States as women of Mexican descent or Mexican background or Latina background".[7] Castillo argues that Chicanas must combat multiple modes of oppression, including homophobia, racism, sexism and classism, and that Chicana feminism must acknowledge the presence of multiple diverse Chicana experiences.[8] Her writing shows the influence of magical realism.[9] Much of her work has been translated into Spanish, including her poetry. She has also contributed articles and essays to such publications as the Los Angeles Times and Salon. Castillo is the editor of La Tolteca, an arts and literary magazine.[10] She was also nominated in 1999 for the "Greatest Chicagoans of the Century" sponsored by the Sun Times.[4] 1. ^http://www.anacastillo.com/content/?page_id=2 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|last=Manríquez|first=B.J.|title=Ana Castillo|url=http://latinoamerican2.abc-clio.com/Search/Display/1329532?terms=%22ana+castillo%22|work=The American Mosaic: The Latin American Experience|publisher=ABC-CLIO|accessdate=April 26, 2013}} 3. ^{{cite journal|title=none|last=Hampton|first=Janet Jones|journal=Américas|date= Jan–Dec 2000|volume=52|issue=1|pages=48–53}} 4. ^1 2 3 Shea, Renee H.

PoetryAs a poet Castillo has authored several works, including Otro Canto (1977) The Invitation (1979), Women Are Not Roses (Arte Publico, 1984), and My Father Was a Toltec (West End Press, 1988).[14] Her works primarily communicate the meaning and revelations we discover in various experiences. Her poem, Women Don't Riot, explores the tribulations of womanhood, but Castillo daringly uses the lines of this poem as her "offense, rejection" (line 49–50 of the poem) of the idea that she will sit quiet. She often intermingles Spanish and English in her poetry, like in her collection of poems entitled I Ask the Impossible. The hybrid of languages that she creates is poetic and lyrical, using one language to intrigue another as opposed to a broken "Spanglish". BibliographyNovels
