Nicolás Guillén
Nicolás Guillén was born on a fine tenth of July in Cuba, 1902. He died there six days after his 87th birthday. In between he wrote a lot of poems.
He was the original, the preeminent, Afro-Cuban all-star poet. Below you can hear him read his "Poema de amor" ("Love Poem"). Guillén's voice is the foundation of a video made by yet another creative YouTubist.
The voice of Nicolás Guillén reading that poem is archived here.
