Ivens Dias Branco
In 1953, when he was 19 years old, Ivens started working with his father Manuel, a Portuguese immigrant. In less than three decades, he turned Padaria Fortaleza (Fortaleza Bakery) into one of the largest industrial groups in Latin America in the cookies and pasta industry. He also owns hotels, a cement factory, a construction company, and a grain transportation port in Bahia. However, his most special feature is actually his character and the singular way he relates to people. Sergio Vilas-Boas conducted 80 interviews to compose this profile, shedding light on the causes and consequences of the positive unanimity of this discrete and methodical gentleman who, with dedication and perspicacity, immensely contributed to the socioeconomic progress of Brazil’s Northeast region.

Luso-American Literature
Portuguese and Cape Verdean immigrants have had a significant presence in North America since the nineteenth century. Recently, Brazilians have also established vibrant communities in the U.S. This anthology brings together, for the first time in English, the writings of these diverse Portuguese-speaking, or "Luso-American" voices. Historically linked by language, colonial experience, and cultural influence, yet ethnically distinct, Luso-Americans have often been labeled an "invisible minority." This collection seeks to address this lacuna, with a broad mosaic of prose, poetry, essays, memoir, and other writings by more than fifty prominent literary figures--immigrants and their descendants, as well as exiles and sojourners. It is an unprecedented gathering of published, unpublished, forgotten, and translated writings by a transnational community that both defies the stereotypes of ethnic literature, and embodies the drama of the immigrant experience.
