Gabriela Mistral

Today i'm going to talk about Gabriela Mistral, because i think she was a very important person for chilean history and poetry.
She was really important in chilean history, and in my opinion one of the most influential female characters because of her poetry legacy and for being outstanding and remarkable on a time that wasn't equal for men and women, especially if you were a lesbian. 
She was born in Vicuña, Chile on 1889 and died in New York in 1957 at the age of 67.
Her real name was Lucia de María Godoy Alcayaga and she grew up in a realy poor family.
When little, she and her family moved to La Unión (nowdays known as Pisco Elqui) and then Montegrande, this last one was considered by the poetess as her "beloved town" and even as her native town.
Her beginnings were as a teacher at the "Compañía Baja" School in La Serena in 1904, and in 1908 in La Cantera and also Cerrillos. She was really smart, so much that she recieved the "state teacher" tittle without even having studies. 
On 1910, when she moved to Santiago, she knew the poet Pablo Neruda, who introduced her to literature. Ones of her many poems were "El perdón de una víctima", "La muerte del poeta", "Las lágrimas de la huérfana", "Amor imposible" and "Horas sombrías".
As time passed, she become more and more famous because of her poems. She recieved a lot of recognition, winning the literature Nobel prize on 1945.
If i could ask her something, i would ask what changes she would do on today's chilean education.
There's a lot more i could say about here but it would take me a lot more than 220 words.
