Daniel Reveles
Reveles, who moved to Baja California from Los Angeles over twenty years ago, has a pointed and often humorous outlook on many types of borders-such as racial and gender divisions and the serious rifts between classes and religions. The International Border itself also makes quite a few appearances in his offbeat tales, from the line-crossing curfews to a cross-cultural wedding that really takes the cake! Born in Los Angeles to Mexican-born parents, Reveles has been in some part of the entertainment industry since he was seventeen-as a recording artist, songwriter, television producer, documentary film director, and disc jockey. He stumbled into the Baja California border town of Tecate twenty years ago, and has been there ever since. A popular storyteller, he frequently travels around the country, speaking to university audiences and creative writing students. Reveles lives and writes in the company of coyotes on a ranch on the outskirts of Tecate, and has recently completed his fourth collection of stories.
