Tino Villanueva (born December 11, 1941, San Marcos, Texas) is an American poet and writer. His early work was associated with the Chicano literary renaissance of the 1960s and 1970s,[1] and Villanueva is considered to be a primary figure in that literary movement.[2] More recently, Villanueva's work has treated themes from Greek mythology.[3]
Villanueva writes in both English and Spanish, often switching between the two languages.[6]
He founded Imagine Publishers, Inc., and edited Imagine: International Chicano Poetry Journal.
